Tex-Mex Fish Tacos – A Simple Weeknight Dinner Idea
Delicious and easy Tex-Mex Fish Tacos – a hint of sweet and spicy Texas flavor packed into a corn tortilla with coleslaw and serrano sauce.
You know the saying, “Everything is bigger in Texas”? Well, it also means the flavors we like to enjoy. When it comes to food, Texas is known for its unique flavors and big taste.
Tex-Mex is huge in our state, and we can pretty much determine if a restaurant or food truck is good based on the smell of everything cooking. Our noses are even in tune with the uniqueness that Texas holds itself up to!
Texas is bold.
Texas is spicy with a hint of sweetness.
Texas is unique foods.
Texas is seeing the “Welcome to Texas” sign on your way back from an out of state trip that lets you know you are home. Even if you still have another 5-hours before you make it to your door, that sign alone makes you feel at home!
Texas is natural springs.
Texas is the land of from here for here inspired products.
