    Where did you find those tortillas? Tortillas are my weakness and I can't seem to find any that are under 160 calories :(

    I also like to do fish tacos with Mango Salsa- I use the LOW carb tortillas that are 80 calories I can have 2... I get the breaded cod from sams- its like 220 for 2 fish fillets-(non breaded cod is LESS calories and aslo pretty good!) bake it in the oven. Then I make a VERY yummy Mango salsa- I take a yellow or orange bell pepper and cut up, a red/ white onion chopped, one mango diced, and about 1/2 can of corn and a little bit of dry italian seasoning, and set in the fridge to marinate for a little while- then I put it on the tacos- and it is SOOO yummy and around 400 calories for 2 tacos!!

    You could cut the cals down some more by replacing the sour cream with greek yogurt.

    Thanks for sharing the recipe. I'm looking forward to trying them. If I can ever find some low cal tortillas.
