Grilled Go Fish Soft Tacos

I love fish tacos. So i tried this recipe from Hungry Girl 300 under 300, and i'm going to try another one later this week. This a tilapia grilled taco and the one i'll be making later is a baked breaded cod. The recipe makes two servings so I split them with my roommate! 1 serving is 273 calories, 5.75g fat, 330mg sodium, 30g carbs, 5g fiber, 5g sugar, 27g protein, 7 WW points plus

Tacos

2 tbsp limi juice
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/8 tsp salt
two 4-ounce raw tilapia fillets
Four 6-inch corn tortillas
1 cup shredded cabbage or dry coleslaw mix
1/4 cup chopped tomato

Avocado Cream

2 tbsp mashed avocado 
2 tbsp fat free sour cream
1/2 tsp lime juice
dash garlic powder, or more to taste
dash chili powder, or mote to taste
dash salt, or more to taste

Combine lime juice and spices for tacos in a large bowl, and mix well. Add fillets and cover both sides of each with seasoned lime juice. Let marinate in the fridge for at least 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine all ingredients for avocado cream in a small bowl and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Spray a grill or grill pan with nonstick spray and bring to a medium heat. Grill fish for 5 minutes, and then very carefully flip. Grill for 3 more minutes, or until cooked through. Set aside.
Place tortillas on the grill/grill pan and grill for 1 minute per side, or until toasty. Plate and spread evenly with avocado cream. Break fish into pieces and evenly divide among tortillas. Top with cabbage, tomatoes and, if you like, some fruity salsa.

Eggless Stuffed Breakfast Burrito

So this has got to be the most delicious thing I have tried yet. I cannot get enough of Mexican food. And this was so yummy and so filling. However I am terrible at holding burritos so I would try watching a few youtube videos first. It came from Hungry Girl 200 under 200 and the recipe makes one serving. 199 calories, 6g fat, 892mg sodium, 28g carbs, 15g fiber, 5.5g sugar, 21g protein, 5 WW pointsplus.

1 large La Tortilla Factory Smart and Delicious Low Carb/High Fiber Tortilla
1 slice extra lean turkey bacon
2 cups fresh spinach leaves 
1/3 cup diced mushrooms
1/4 cup diced plum tomatoes
1/4 cup diced green bell pepper
2 tbsp diced onion
1 wedge The Laughing Cow Light Original Swiss Cheese
2 tbsp shredded fat-free cheddar cheese

Cut bacon into small, bite size pieces. Set aside.
Spray a small pan with non-stick spray and bring to medium-high heat. Add bacon pieces, mushrooms, pepper, and onion to the pan. Stirring occasionally, cook until bacon begins to crisp, 4 to 5 minutes.
Add spinach leaves and cook and stir until the leaves have wilted. Add shredded cheese and stir until just melted. Remove pan from heat and set aside. 
Warm tortilla in the microwave for about 10 seconds. Lay tortilla flat and spread cheese wedge on top of it. Evenly layer spinach mixture over the cheese-topped tortilla. Place diced tomatoes on top of spinach mixture.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, and then carefully roll tortilla up from the bottom to the top.
