Spiced fish that is piled high with creamy slaw that is then topped with a divine avocado cream makes for awesome tacos.

The avocado cream was my favorite part of these tacos. It added so much great flavor and went brilliantly with the slaw and fish. The fresh flavors of these tacos and the pretty colors will help to brighten you day.

Tilapia is a great fish to work with and cooks up fast in a skillet with a little oil. The whole dinner was took so little to put together and my family raved over it.
