    I pickled radishes, shallots, and pepperoncini to add to the tacos. Hubs likes lettuce with his tacos. We both loved the recipe and would definitely make it again.

    Fish tacos!! I made them exactly as you specified: for our first outdoor party of ten people, first time ever and they were the bomb! in Oakland Ca. You’ll see the ingredients including chipotle lime sauce in a yellow squirt bottle. Thank you for your recipes being so reliable! We had your chicken enchilada soup at Christmas, (made it outdoors,) your yellow cake for birthdays, easy enchilada sauce and fajitas. Never a miss! Pandemic happiness! Granulated garlic and onion–chipotles in adobo–never knew about those! I tell everyone about you. Thank you!
