Dinner with the Besties!

Last night, we made Mexican style fish tacos and fresh salsa all from scratch. (No, this isn't an April Fool's joke, we really did get down in the kitchen). Julie's mom makes the best fish tacos in the world and yesterday, Julie decided to share her family recipe with us. We started off with a trip to the supermarket to buy all the essentials. I have to add that three hungry girls at the supermarket is not good... Okay, so we got everything we needed (or so we thought), including some Dos Equis to wash the tacos down, and went straight to work. Of course we forgot one of the most important items... Corn tortillas. Duh! Ali's sister was gracious enough to go back to the grocery store for us. (Thanks, Steph!) We started off with the toppings for the tacos, which is what took the longest to make. All that chopping is not easy!

Here's a list of the toppings:
- Chopped onion marinated in lemon
- Red salsa (This was also an original recipe, courtesy of Julie's momma. Mmm mmm good!)
- Pico de gallo
- Guacamole
- Special spread (This is the secret to delicious fish tacos...)

We fried the fish dipped in batter last. That part was a breeze, including making the batter, but the best part was finally sitting down to eat! Our teamwork definitely paid off. Everything was suuuper yummy. Special thanks to our friend, Julie. We really appreciate her sharing her family recipe with us. (We had an awesome time, kitten!)
