These healthy fish tacos are packed with flavor, great texture, and they’re so simple to put together. If you like some sweetness in your fish tacos, these are for you. I think fish tacos are best when there’s a little crunch, a ton of flavor, and a creamy element makes them even better. They need to have it all. And these do!

Fish

We used cod for these fish tacos, but any white fish will do. Cook it on the stove top with a little salt sprinkled on top. When it’s done cooking, drizzle some lime juice on it.

Tortillas

Pick your tortillas. I used small (3″ or 4″ diameter) corn tortillas for this recipe. If you want to make taco night extra special, have you thought about making your own tortillas? If you have the right tools it’s really pretty simple. Read more about making your own tortillas here. If not, these corn tortillas would work great!

Avocado Mango Salsa

This avocado mango salsa is SO good. Sweet mango avocado salsa, a kick from the red onion and great flavor from the cilantro. Make it in five minutes…here’s the recipe.

Cabbage

What’s a taco without a little crunch? Using a sharp knife, slice off REALLY thin pieces of cabbage. This will provide some crunch to the tacos, but not so much that you struggle to chew the tacos!
