When I received a big box filled with Food Should Taste Good Chips I immediately started brainstorming recipe ideas. I knew the flavors: Guacamole, Blue Corn, and Multigrain Tortilla Chips would be great for dipping but I wanted to incorporate them in a family friendly recipe too. Then it came to me: Tortilla Chip Crusted Fish Tacos! Jazzed up with homemade taco seasoning, black beans, and Avocado Mango Salsa. I used the Guacamole chips to coat the fish and baked them in the oven so the fish was flaky and flavorful but not greasy at all! 
It was a rockstar dish all the way around, y’all! Even better, with the extra chips we had Guacamole chips with the Avocado Mango Salsa all week long and Blue Corn chips with a killer Spicy Olive Rotel dip on the weekend! 
My girl loves snackin’ and I have no problem with her chowing down on Food Should Taste Good chips! Made from wholesome ingredients, they are created with real ingredients, zero trans fats, and no cholesterol. They are also certified gluten free and Kosher, making them a perfect ‘good for you’ snack!

Tortilla Chip Crusted Baked Fish Tacos with Avocado Mango Salsa

Makes 6 tacos, 3 servings

Ingredients

  • 3 large Tilapia fillets split into 6 pieces
  • 1 1/2 cups tortilla chips crushed (I used Guacamole flavored Food Should Taste Good brand)
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 tbsp plus 1 tsp taco seasoning
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1 can black beans rinsed and drained
  • 6 small flour tortillas
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • cooking spray

Salsa:

  • 1/2 mango peeled and diced
  • 1/2 avocado peeled and diced
  • 1 tbsp jalapeno seeded and finely diced
  • salt to taste
  • 1 tbsp lime juice

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Line a large baking sheet.
  • Add tortilla chips, flour, and 1 tbsp taco seasoning to a large ziploc bag. Shake to mix and crush chips with your hands.
  • Make a breading station. Add beaten egg to one plate and chip mixture to another.
  • Dip each fish piece in egg then coat and press in chip mixture.
  • Lay on lined baking sheet and repeat with remaining fish.
  • To make sure they get extra crispy spray fish lightly with cooking spray.
  • Place in the oven for 12-15 minutes until cooked through and flaky and the coating is golden brown.
  • Depending on the size of your fish fillets you may need to cut them lengthwise in half (I had 3 large fillets and cut them into 6 pieces) after they come out of the oven.
  • Meanwhile, add rinsed black beans to a saucepan.
  • Heat over medium low and add 1 tsp taco seasoning and 1 tbsp lime juice. Stir until warmed throughout.
  • Mix together ingredients for salsa in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Optional: heat flour tortillas on a plate covered with a damp paper-towel in the microwave for 15 seconds.
  • To assemble tacos: add one fillet to each tortilla, along with a few spoonfuls of beans, and then add salsa on top. I serve 2 tacos per person.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy! I like to serve extra salsa and chips on the side.

I like to use mild white fish for fish tacos like Tilapia or Cod.
These large fillets were big enough for me to cut in half after I cooked them
 and make 6 servings!
Add tortilla chips, flour, and 1 tbsp taco seasoning to a large ziploc bag. 
Shake to mix and crush chips with your hands. 
Homemade taco seasoning is the best!
Check out my recipe here.
Make a breading station.
 Add beaten egg to one plate and seasoned flour and crushed chips to another.
Dip fish in egg mixture.
Then press and coat in crushed chip mixture. 
Be sure to coat both sides then place on a lined baking sheet.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until cooked through and flaky and the coating is golden brown. 
I like to jazz up my black beans.
Heat beans in a saucepan (be sure to rinse and drain first) 
then add 1 tsp taco seasoning and a tbsp of lime juice. 
Mix together all the ingredients for the salsa in a small bowl.
You can also add red onion if you’d like.
Remove fish from oven. I cut the large fillets in half lengthwise. 
Heat flour tortillas on a plate covered
 with a damp paper-towel in the microwave for 15 seconds.
 
To assemble tacos: add one fillet to each warmed tortilla.
 
Add a few spoonfuls of beans, and then add salsa on top. 
 
Serve tacos immediately and enjoy! 
 
Bonus: extra Mango Avocado Salsa is delish with Guacamole Chips on the side! 

We also served up Blue Corn Food Should Taste Good Chips with a Spicy Olive and Rotel Dip for 4th of July. Also how flippin’ cute are our Rocket Sausage Dogs?!

🍽 Yesterday we enjoyed lunch at NCAL+H2O, an upscale seafood gem of a restaurant in downtown Rolla. It was a delicious meal and everything this Florida girl has been craving! 
🐟 We started with an order of amazing Tuna Poke Nachos then shared a Grilled Shrimp Club sandwich with fries and a tasty salad with house garlic parm dressing. We couldn't stop there so we also split a bowl of cioppino, which was chock full of fresh seafood. Next time I want to try their Parmesan Halibut or Seafood Pasta!

Road trip time and #CaseysCurbside saved the day! We stopped at @caseys and stocked up on some supplies, including my favorite pretzels and juice from their new line of Casey’s favorites, before we were on our way.

We drove out to Marshfield today and made a few Route 66 stops including the Missouri Welcome Center in Conway with it's Route 66 themed picnic area and downtown Marshfield with the murals and Hubble telescope replica.
