Krisit's Fish Tacos

This was a big deal for me.  Fish and I do not have a good relationship.  Not because I have had a bad experience with it, mostly because I am scared of it. I may have to mention that I was so scared to smell fish that I made my husband put it in the bag of marinade outside just to make sure that didn't happen.  We were successful in not letting me smell fish so I was able to try the food.  I was surprised at how mild and yummy it was.  All the sauces made these tacos delicious.  ( I just ate mine with out a tortilla so it was more like a salad for me. ) The kids loved them as well. We will be making these again. The original recipe is found Here
