Fish tacos are a great go-to dinner. Besides being really easy to prepare, they’re healthy when sautéed in a tablespoon of healthy oil, like olive oil. The American Heart Association recommends eating a 2.5 ounce serving of fish at least two times a week, especially fish that’s high in omega-3 fatty acids like salmon, lake trout, and albacore tuna.
