One of my favorite things to eat! I love fish tacos,I was exploring a healthier, easier version. Without the frying and the flour coat on the fish , don't get me wrong I love those to. But I really wanted something lighter , still healthy but delicious! So I decided to grill my fish and instead of cabbage to use shredded spinach, I always try to include super green every where, and because my condition one of the best things I can eat. I made my favorite cilantro and jalapeno sauce and a tomato version of my pico de gallo. I didn't want to use my Pico de Gallo alone here because I wanted the sauce and fish to be the star and my pico the gallo is to strong. Hope you like this is easy and sooooo good!
