I usually throw meals together at the last minute, and I rarely follow recipes. I’ve also discovered that kids will eat pretty much anything if you wrap it in a tortilla and call it a taco! This is what I threw together last night, and it turned out pretty tasty!
Ingredients:
- 4 Tilapia fillets
- 1 Tbsp grape seed oil
- 1 tsp onion salt
- 1 tsp crushed red pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp cumin
spice measurements are estimates…add more or less to taste!
- 1 cup brown rice
- 1/2 cup salsa & 1/2 cup water combined
- 4 whole wheat tortillas
- Fresh veggies – red peppers, green peppers, diced tomatoes, lettuce…whatever you fancy!
- Low fat shredded cheese (optional)
- Low fat sour cream (optional)
Instructions:
- Place tilapia fillets in a greased baking dish.
- Season with spices and drizzle with grape seed oil.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes.
- Remove fish from oven, and tear into small chunks.
- While the fish is baking, cook rice in the salsa/water mixture.
- Serve fish & rice in warm whole wheat tortillas.
- Top with fresh veggies, low fat shredded cheese & sour cream (if desired)…and enjoy!

I am definitely trying this over the weekend
Those look so yummy!!!!
oooooh, I will be making these next week!! YUM!!
Definitely going to try this with my family! A new twist on the average taco or the plain baked tilapia!
Made these last night and they were fantastic. This is my new favorite way to eat tilapia! I ate two and my bodybuilder boyfriend ate 5 and wanted more!!!
I topped the tacos with the salsa rice, 2% milk cheese and fat free sour cream.
Thank you for the recipe!
One question….how many WW points do you figure each taco is?
