Spicy Salmon Tacos

Spicy Salmon Tacos

By: Lisa Guy

This tasty spicy salmon taco recipe is sure to become a favourite in your meal rotation. Salmon is an excellent source of beneficial omega-3 essential fatty acids which are vital for brain function, cardiovascular health and
a strong-functioning immune system. Omega-3 fats also have potent anti-inflammatory properties. Regular taco shells are deep fried in vegetable oil, so making tasty oven-baked taco shells from home is much healthier and they taste better too!
