Grilled Fish Taco Bowls

Grilled Fish “Taco” Bowls

I love fresh fish tacos…but I don’t eat tortillas so why not leave out the tortillas for me and, if you would like to add 2, be sure to add 80 calories to the totals for each serving.  I’ll have mine in a bowl thanks!  If I REALLY need to eat with my hands I’ll just wrap the filling in a lettuce leaf.  Just in case you had not thought about it this works for almost anything that comes wrapped in a tortilla, or between 2 pieces of bread.

Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Heat grill to medium high
  2. In a small bowl whisk together mayo and 2 tablespoons of the chipotle spread

  5. Whisk 3 tablespoons of the mayo/chipotle spread mixture into the lime dressing
  6. Pour 1/4 of the lime mixture into a zip loc bag with remaining 1 tablespoon of the chipotle spread and the fish
