The Sauce of Awsomeness

Avocados: Mashed / Limes: Juiced / Jalapeno: Finely Chopped

Add your avocados and an equal amount of yogurt along with your lime juice into a blender and pulse until smoothish. Add your jalapeno and a touch of sea salt to taste and blend very smooth, add a little milk if it's too thick. Transfer into a squirt bottle and refrigerate.

Slawsome

Shred up equal amounts of your cabbages and some carrots, toss with sweetened rice wine vinegar, ample black pepper and Fines Herbs.

Oh Fishy Fishy Fishy Fish...

Thaw your fillets and dry, liberally season both sides with Old Bay Blackened and a touch of sea salt. Heat your well oiled, cast iron skillet to 350ยบ. I used a pepper infused oil myself but any cooking oil will do, now place the fish in the hot skillet, cover and cook until you are sure you've cooked it too long.. I'm serious, get some fonde built up, don't worry about it sticking. When you are ready to flip it, get the spatch under the tail end and scratch it up lengthwise, then give it a flip. Cover and cook for two more minutes. Kill the heat, remove the cover and roughly chop up the fish, making sure to scrape the bottom of the pan for all that charliciousness in the bottom, cover and set aside.


Warm your tortillas and add what and how much of what you like and poke it down your neck!
