A recipe you will definitley want on your menu, the Dine & Dish Menu Plan for the week, and a great giveaway from Marzetti’s Simply Dressed Salad Dressing, all below!
I am obsessed, with a capital “O”, with fish tacos lately. I just can’t get enough of them… so much that they’ve made a weekly appearance on our table for the past several weeks. I’ve made fish tacos before, but those tacos contained fried fish. Now, my favorite form of fish tacos is with thick cuts of white fish, cheese, cabbage and tomatoes, all with a douse of Marzetti Simply Dressed Balsamic Dressing. Oh dear me… these fish tacos are my new “I need dinner on the table in 15 minutes” meal. So fresh and so good…if you haven’t made fish tacos at home, I beg of you to give these a chance. Once you enjoy fish tacos for the first time, I think Taco Tuesday might start having a whole new meaning at your house!
Our menu for this week is full of classic winter dishes. We had over a foot of snow dumped on us this past week and we’re supposed to get at least that much again tomorrow. We’re hunkering down, staying warm, and filling our bellies with comfort foods.

Fish tacos are always delicious – and drizzled with balsamic, well this is a HOME RUN!
Not only am I envious that you do such an awesome meal plan, I love these tacos!! We have tacos several times a month, but I’m loving the balsamic on this version. Totally going on my virtual list!! Well… I the tacos will be made for sure, I just need to make a real plan.
K, those look amazing. I’ve been slowly easing my children into loving fish tacos … but I think these might just do it!
I used to be the same way! I loved only deep fried crunchy fish tacos now all I need is a good flaky, well-seasoned fish and I am good to go! I can’t wait to try this! I just bought Tilapia too!
I would love to try this in tacos
I just printed this.
I mean, how can you not print this one out?
Seriously creative Ms Kristen!
