Happy Taco Tuesday!
Tonight for dinner I made something a little different: Ahi Tuna Fish Tacos. I love sushi with tender tuna so these vibrant tacos were inspired by my favorite sushi. I add the sliced raw tuna to a marinade for a few minutes then add it to a tortilla along with sliced buttery avocado, crunchy Ramen Slaw, and a drizzle of Wasabi Creme. Talk about a flavor explosion!
