  • 1 pound tilapia fillets
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 (4.6 ounce) package taco shells
  • 1 (6 ounce) container plain yogurt

  4. Heat taco shells in preheated oven until crisp, about 5 minutes.
  5. Mix yogurt, lime juice, sugar, lime zest, and salt together in a large bowl. Stir in coleslaw mix, cilantro, and jalapeno; let stand 5 minutes.
  6. Spoon about 1/4 cup fish and 1/4 cup coleslaw mixture into each taco shell. Top each with 1 tablespoon tomato.
