This is three weeks delayed, but here is the recipe for the Grilled Chipotle Salmon Tacos I made on July 19th. The recipe comes from the healthy living section at the back of the Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook.

Thoughts and Variations
I used salmon fillets, although I don't actually know if the were skinless or not, and I think I forgot to rinse them. I used red potatoes and regular chile powder since I couldn't find ground chipotle chile pepper. I omited the cilantro and used snall whear torillas instead of corn tortillas, since I didn't care for the corn ones last time I used them.

As I don't have a bbq or grill or any kind, I put some oil in a frying pan and did the fish that way. I used medium heat on a gas stove, and the recommended timing, and my fish seemed to come out cooked just fine. Putting it all together was easy, although I did forget the sour cream on most of the tacos, and I didn't serve it with lime wedges either.

It was a pretty tasty recipe, although the fish got a little lost in all the ingredients, and the potatoes seemed a little incongruous with the rest of it. I'm not sure whether I would make this particular recipe again, although it did have the affect of showing me that fish tacos *can* be delicious, so I may be more open to trying other fish taco recipes, or ordering them at restaurants. All in all, I would consider this recipe a success, even if it did have a few flavour misses.
