These Low Carb Fish Taco Bowls are a healthy, flavorful alternative to traditional tacos, featuring baked cod fillets, cauliflower rice, and a creamy honey lime crema for a satisfying meal.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

4 frozen cod fillets

2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter

2 tablespoons taco seasoning

¼ cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)

1 ½ teaspoons lime juice

1 teaspoon honey

1 tablespoon milk

Pinch of salt

2 cups Pineapple Lime Cauliflower Rice

2 cups Sweet and Spicy Coleslaw

1 Avocado, sliced

¼ cup chopped Cilantro, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a sheet pan with foil for easy cleanup.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter and taco seasoning. Brush the mixture over the frozen cod fillets.
  3. Place the fillets on the prepared sheet pan and bake for 25 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  4. While the fish is baking, whisk together sour cream, lime juice, honey, milk, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl to make the honey lime crema.
  5. To assemble the bowls, start by placing ½ cup of cauliflower rice in each of 4 bowls.
  6. Add ½ cup of sweet and spicy coleslaw to each bowl.
  7. Place one baked cod fillet in each bowl, and top with avocado slices.
  8. Drizzle the honey lime crema over each bowl and garnish with chopped cilantro.

Notes

  • For a low-carb version, leave out the pineapple in the cauliflower rice.
  • For a vegetarian option, replace the fish with grilled tofu or roasted vegetables.
  • For a spicy kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the crema.
  • For a dairy-free version, use dairy-free yogurt and skip the sour cream.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat the fish and cauliflower rice in the microwave or oven for best results.
