You do not need hours of cooking and standing in the kitchen to create one amazing meal. You really do not! That is the whole point of this blog. 99% of my recipes are easy because I do not have hours to stand and cook, even though I cook every single day.
Sometimes, I use shortcuts, meaning store-bought seasonings, cake mixes, or taco shells.
I mean, even though it tastes 100 times better when you make it yourself, still it is perfectly alright if you get from the store your favorite seasoning or something that will save you time.
These tacos were delightful and refreshing. I really loved the idea of sweet and savory salsa, and this one was all that plus more.
The Tanginess of salsa gave the whole dimension of great flavors that made these tacos taste even better. However, fish… You will want to take the bread and just scoop it with your fingers directly out of the skillet for one big bite.
It was out of this world. I think it is well-balanced, healthy, delicious, and perfect for your weekend dinners.
Simple and easy recipe for Fish Taco with Peach Salsa
You can use soft small tortillas or hard corn taco shells. If you do not have peach, a good substitute is one mango or even a cup of chopped pineapple. You want the sweetness that you can achieve with fruit.

Spicy Tuna Salad is an easy and tasty way to enjoy a healthy and delicious meal any time. I love eating those ones wrapped in warm delicious flat pita bread.
When I looked through my kitchen window this morning as coffee was dripping down in my mug, I thought it’s going to rain.
Gray clouds surrender the sky and it was rather dark but pretty enjoyable to just sit and look at the birds flying around and making beautiful noises.
I usually go outside with my cup of Joe and it was a comfortable and very peaceful morning, even with only a few hours of sleep that I had.
The smell and taste of coffee and morning crisp air always wake me up and give me that feeling of calmness; I connect with my thoughts, plan my day, go over the schedule and write down some things that are on my mind.
I love to write even though I am not very good at it, but I try. It is almost the same as if you give me a microphone and I start to sing! Then the sun just came out…out of nowhere! Le sigh! I wanted rain!!!
It was kind of day made for rain. If you didn’t notice before I really love rainy days! I love just to listen and relax while it’s pouring outside, Yiruma radio on Pandora is usually in the background, a book in my hands, and of course, coffee or a cup of tea is right next to me. I would say that is my perfect morning or evening.
When I have a really crazy busy day I make this Tuna salad. It is a quick fix, and my kiddos like it, at least my oldest two.
Do I really call it a recipe? Well, nah! But, today, I will call it “the crazy easy short-cut meal”…we all do it, right? Precooked chicken? Takeouts? Leftovers?
Whatever saves me, time man, I am all over it! From time to time I add some cooked beans to it… a very good combo with tuna.
What is your #1 short-cut meal? I would really love to know…
If you make this please tag me on Instagram @sandraseasycooking so I can check out and share your delicious creations. Thank you so much for all your support.
