Fish no longer makes me nervous, I am glad that I didn’t give up on making it. I love making all kinds of fish including tuna, tilapia and other Easy Salmon Recipes like this one. Tilapia Tacos have become a hit in our house, it’s just one example of an easy fish recipe perfect for a house full of kids and a Mom on the run.
