Maple-Miso Cod Tacos with Purple Cabbage Slaw

Celebrate #TacoTuesday with these simple maple-miso cod tacos!

We love themed dinner days like Taco Tuesday. They’re not only fun but also help make meal planning a bit easier since we already have an idea of what the main meal is that day of the week. But, offering the same version of the meal each week can lead to meal boredom, so we try to offer different variations on the theme. Tacos are a great way to incorporate seafood into a family meal because they’re often already a familiar and comfortable choice for kids. Even if your child (or any adult!) isn’t quite there with accepting the fish into his/her taco, he’ll still be getting exposed to it, which puts him one step closer to trying and enjoying seafood.

The sweet and savory combination of Coombs maple syrup and miso adds bold flavor to this light fish while a creamy and crunchy purple cabbage with lime juice offers crunch and creaminess.
