braised tilapia tacos w/shrimp & mushroom salsa

Talking with my mom tonight she told me she was weirded out by the idea of "fish tacos", so I explained to her how very good--and nutritious AND low-fat--they are--so of course the CRAVING hit and that's what we had for dinner! I braise or sometimes grill tilapia or flounder (depending on what I have in the freezer), but you can dip the filets in cornmeal and salt and deep-fry them if you like. The Shrimp Salsa was a spur-of-the-moment thing I made to go with them that works well even with pork tacos. El Milagro are the BEST corn tortillas around, IMHO, but if you can hand-make them, more power to ya! I will include the Black Bean-Corn Salad recipe in a separate file, but it goes great with this dish, and the Spanish Rice is a quickie from Rice-A-Roni--yeah, I know, but I was in a hurry! Just add a can of diced tomatoes, 1/2 minced onion, garlic powder and some cumin and you have it! Serve with fresh sliced avocado and sour cream--Margaritas optional!
