Tilapia Fish Tacos Bowl

HAPPY SUMMER SOLSTICE

Seriously, when I lived in the Yukon this was my most favorite day of the year! It was day time ALL 24hrs! Summer in the North is amazing and if you ever get a chance to travel there in the summer I say GO FOR IT!

I wanted to bring you a fresh summer recipe for the first day of summer but didn't really know what to do. Since I am still on my second round of 80 Day Obsession using timed nutrition but following the 2B Mindset principles, I wanted to create a recipe that would fit in with containers but also the PlateIt method.

And this my friends is what I came up with! I made everything from scratch! 

TILAPIA FISH TACOS/BOWL
Time: 30 mins 

For the Tacos:
Tilapia
Tortilla of choice
Coleslaw
Salsa
Avocado
Lime 

For the Bowls:
Tilapia
Riced Cauliflower or choice of base (rice, quinoa)
Salsa
Avocado
Lime
Coleslaw or greens


Tilapia

Ingredients:
4 tilapia filets
2T Cajun/ Fajita seasoning (homemade recipe below)
2T Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Directions:
Heat skillet with 2T Olive oil 
Pat fish dry then seasoning both sides with seasoning 1/2T per filet
Add to hot oil and cook about 3 mins per side ( might flip a few times to be surely cooked through) the fish should flake easily when it is done

Homemade seasoning:
I used it for my Chicken Fajita Stuffed Peppers recipe and had some left over!

4tsp Chili Powder
2tsp Paprika
1tsp Garlic
1tsp Onion powder
1tsp Oregano
1.5tsp Cumin
1/2tsp Cayenne 
dash salt 

Coleslaw 

Ingredients:

1 bag colesaw ( or make your own with shredded cabbage, carrots)

1/2C Mayonaise

1T Apple Cider Vinegar

1/8C sugar or maple syrup or honey

1/4t celery seed

pepper to taste 

Directions:

Mix it all up good and toss in with coleslaw let sit for 15 mins 

Peach Salsa

Ingredients:

2 peaches peeled and diced

2/3 of a red bell pepper

1T minced jalapeno roughly 1/2 of a jalapeno

2T white onion ( or 1/4C diced red onion I didn't have red on hand yesterday)

2 garlic cloves minced
salt and pepper to taste 
1/2T fresh lemon juice
1T fresh lime juice 
1/4C cilantro

Directions:
Mix all ingredients in a bowl and let sit for 10 mins before serving 

Put it together:

If you are making these into tacos like my family did last night, heat up a small or large whole wheat, corn or white tortilla with a little oil or butter on it to crisp it up a bit. Once it starts to bubble then they are ready. If you are using a large tortilla we usually but ours into quarters and make a taco that way. 

Start by adding some fish followed by your choice of toppings you can even add corn or black beans if you choose

To make the bowls add 1 Cup of riced cauliflower or rice to a bowl top with 1 fish filet, 1/2C salsa, 1/4 of an avocado diced, 1/4C coleslaw, lime wedge. 
That is how I did mine anyways but you can add whatever you choose and how much of what ever you choose to match your containers or plateIt method. 

*It was seriously SO dang good!! That peach salsa was BANG on man.. if your peaches were not as sweet as mine you can add a tsp of honey or maple syrup to your salsa mix but if they are perfectly ripe you shouldn't need any sweetening at all.

LIIFT4

| LIFT | HIIT | REST | REPEAT |

Really I could sum up this program in 1 word..well two words...

| GAME CHANGER |

Core de Force co-creator, Joel Freeman, is back with his program LIIFT4. 8 Weeks, 4 Days a week, 30-40 mins a day, simple no nonsense nutrition plan that will allow burgers and beer, with a flexible plan that allows YOU to fit it into your busy schedule. Ummmm SIGN ME UP PLEASE?! 

What you will be able to do in 30 mins in the comfort of your home usually takes about and hour or more in a gym! By combining weight lifting plus HIIT(High Intensity Interval Training) with a short core round, you are sure to shred and tone! 

What is LIIFT4?

I feel this program is coming at the PERFECT time! The summer is when most people tend to forget the exercise because they get to busy! Now with 4 days on and 3 off plus the short workouts it should make it so much easier to reach those goals! 

What you will need:

All you will need for this program is a set of light, medium and heavy dumbbells or a set of resistance bands (they show how you can use a band instead of dumbbells if you do not have them)

VIP EARLY ACCESS:

This program will be made available to ALL Beachbody on Demand subscribers on October 1st. However, there is EARLY ACCESS available for those who are ready to get started ASAP.

HOW IT WORKS: Starting June 11, you can order your LIIFT 4 Challenge Packs, Accessory Bundles or VIP Early Access during our PRESALE.

SPECIAL PERKS:

If you are one of these lucky people who decide you want to start ASAP by purchasing a challenge pack or upgrading to VIP access, then you will get ACCESS immediately to the mini B4 LIIFT4 program which are 4 workouts that are shorter in length ( about 20mins) that will get you a glimpse into what LIIFT4 has in store for you and get you PUMPED UP! Plus you will get BONUS online tools.

**These 4 workouts will NOT be available unless a LIIFT4 pack, bundle or stand-alone is purchased.

What is included:

In every pack or bundle or standalone, you will get a Workout Calendar as well as a Weight Progression tracker. The program also comes with an easy to follow nutrition plan that will make sure you are eating the right amounts of protein, nutrients, healthy carbs and fats that you body needs when doing exercise like this. 

*Contents will vary depending on the pack or bundle you choose. Fill out the form at the bottom of this post to chat more about the right one for you and your needs

Who is LIIFT4 for:

Are you ready for this???

This program is for EVERYONE!!!

Runners | Triathletes | Yogis | New Moms | Moms in general ready to make time for themselves | Dudes who love to lift | My Badass Sistas who love to lift | CrossFit lovers | People who have very little time to workout and need something quick and effective | People who would love to learn how to lift but are too nervous to hit up a gym because they do not know what they are doing | <<-- that was totally me before I started Body Beast, then Hammer and Chisel and now 80 Day Obsession |

Along with Joel, this program will teach and guide you about how to fuel your body when training like this and how you don't need to be some crazy nutrition focused nut ( its totally cool if you are .. I kind of am hah but still enjoy goodies now and then) but that you can still get results while enjoying the things you love in life. It's called #BALANCE. He will also teach you about proper form and give you inspiration and motivation to keep fighting for those goals! 

Will there be any accountability groups:

YES. Joel Freeman has set up an EXCLUSIVE COACH TEST group that will start July 9th. This group will be run by him so you will be able to get the BEST support and tips/info from the creator himself! In order to get in on that group you must be a coach or "discount" coach meaning you are signed up as a coach for discount purposes (if you didn't know that was a thing ask me how to get in on that on the form below!) as well as have purchased a VIP early access pack, bundle or stand-alone before the end of July will receive an email invitation to join the exclusive group.  

*THE GROUP WILL RUN July 16th-Sept 7th so the longer you wait the more you miss.

This is a perfect time to join as a coach, if you sign up with any of the challenge packs or completion packs your coach fee will also be waived.

*For more info indicate on the form below you would be interested in hearing more about the coaching/discount Coach Opportunity.

I will also be running a TEST group for those who get any of the LIIFT4 packs or bundles starting July 16th. Prizes, accountability, inspiration, recipes and more!
