I've tried them. I loved them. Now I want to make them.

I eat gluten free (no wheat, barley, rye, or triticale), so recipes without those ingredients will be especially appreciated.

What kinds of fish do you use? How do you prepare it? Seasoning?

I had the yummy ones at the Cheesecake Factory... Seemed to be made with avocados & were so delicious.

    Why i looked at it and thought "there is sexual innuendo in here, i swear there is".
    To be somewhat usefull : my friend who does fish tacos grills the fish, names of seasoning might be a problem cos I dont remember the translation >.> Lime, garlic and cumin is defenitely included.
    She uses cod if i remember correctly , cant help with the taco itself, since i dont even know gluten free alternative to that.

    Awesome loss btw...

    For the shells, I'll use corn tortillas to avoid wheat. What did she put in taco with the fish? Filling?

    my fish tacos not sure if it matches all your restrictions though

    4 oz tilipia, 1 scallion, 1/2 small tomato, 1 seeded jalapeno, cilantro to taste, I squeeze lemon or lime on the fish while cooking and put pepper on it. Cook the fish in the frying pan first then chop it up add other ingredients, heat through put on tortilla top with avocado. I heat the tortilla up with some cheese on it so it melts , squeeze more lime over everything.

    I love it! and very low in calories!

    Maria Emmerich (www.Mariahealthblog.com) has a gluten free recipe for Tortillas, it's in pinterest too. I like Mahi Mahi or Tilapia. I prepare my own salsa (w/chopped, fresh, lightly salted, raw tomatoes, chopped, raw red onions, crushed or minced (I prefer) fresh garlic (or jarred), grated/minced jalepeno, chopped, fresh cilantro & a squeeze of lime juice or vinegar), thinly shaved cabbage & homemade guacomole or sliced avocado. I use parmesan as breading for the Tilapia & pan fry in olive or coconut oil. I also will sometimes use Litehouse Jalepeno ranch dressing (mixed w/vinegar to thin it out) to add more flavor. Celtic sea salt, black pepper & garlic powder. Mahi Mahi just gets seasoned & pan seared, no parm.

    Mmm this sounds really tasty and a must try!! I'm a big fan of fish tacos baja style but of course those are batter dipped and fried so I'm willing to try new recipes. Thanks!!

    The salsa recipe in here was great on salmon BTW. Not a fish taco, but I made salmon with taco seasoning and topped it with fresh salsa and was totally delish. Normally I hate cilantro, but it was good in salsa for fish.

    Baha style doesn't always mean deep fried. Baha is the sauce they put on it and the cabbage they stuff it with. I'll look at the recipe I have for an actually really good homemade Baha sauce. It makes a good amount and I freeze the leftover bc my family liked it so much.
