Easy Fish Tacos with Peach Cherry Salsa

These easy fish tacos are perfect for summer. Just take the Dr. Praeger's sustainably caught pollock fish sticks out of the freezer, bake to crispy perfection, and then top with all the summery goodness like homemade peach cherry salsa, avocado slices, purple (red) cabbage, and Greek yogurt. 

I love fruity salsas. 

Like this watermelon one

And this mango one

But this summer I'm allllllllll about the cherries and peaches.

I like putting them in smoothie bowls, creamsiclescake, salad, cobbler, sangria, this salsa, and more.  This salsa uses one regular yellow peach, one tiny donut peach (omg, they are sooooooooooo adorable and sweet! Did you see the pic on my IG stories?), a handful of golden grape tomatoes, and about 8 Rainier cherries as the base of this salsa. Not only is it delicious, but it's also super colorful and totally BEAUTIFUL.  Am I right?!?!?

Believe it or not, I've had a lot of different fish sticks over the past few years. Both Dear Hubby and Babycakes LOVE them, usually doused in about a gallon of malt vinegar and then dipped in cocktail sauce. I can say without a doubt that these Dr. Praeger's fish sticks are our favorite. They get perfectly crispy on the outside while staying firm (not mushy) on the inside. Plain, or taco-i-fied (I love making up words!!!) you are going to love them!

And I love that they are sustainably caught.

If you buy the tiny (ie. adorable) little street taco tortillas, then one fish stick is the perfect size for the ideal meat to toppings to tortilla ratio.
