Lauren - Just read your What IS this Fish Taco thing?

There's a restaurant two doors down from work called Wahoo's Fish Taco Restaurant.

For $5.35 you get...

2 grilled Fish Tacos comprised of: grilled Ahi Tuna approx 2oz. (2pts) Salsa - 0 shredded cabbage - 0 and double 4" tortillas. I use only one tortilla each - sometimes only 1/2 of one, and eat about a 1/4-1/2 c of the black beans - 1 pt. They serve it with rice but I don't eat it.

I've estimated that I use about 5 points for this lunch. It's my no-brainer safety valve, and has really been probably the one area that's the most reliable to fall back on re losing and maintaining the weight.

P.S. for anyone interested.

It's Laurel, not Lauren.

I've never liked my name I have to say (Hey Laurel, where's Hardy?), but I've grown accustomed to it by now.


P.P.S. Wow, there's a whole restaurant just for Fish Tacos! That is so funny!

Oooops. LM / Laurel... have I been writing it out the wrong way all along? Yikes. Sorry. I do have a friend named Lauren and in my burned out state today must have gone into automatic. Never again! Promise!

Wahoo's does have other stuff chicken , carne asadas, burritos, etc... but they are known "far and wide" for their fish tacos. Yummm. Patch

Myra,

Tell me more about grilled tofu. do you grill it yourself and how? I like tofu and want to get more of it into me. Need prep ideas.

It's actually pretty simple. I cut the tofu block (you have to use firm or extra firm tofu) into slices and then marinade them. Last night I used a ginger teriyaki marinade that I bought from the supermarket. Sometimes I just use soy sauce with garlic powder and some other spices or ff italian dressing. Then you just put it on the grill. Or you could pan fry it. Yesterday I used my George Foreman grill (what a great invention. I also use it frequently to grill veggies and it is great to make burgers and steaks more lean for my hubby and son, who are not vegetarians).

I hope this helped.

Myra
