Original GF Paleo Vegetarian

Our Asian Fish Tacos get great reviews for their combination of bright flavors and varied textures. Tonight we're bringing back a shortcut version from 2022 that uses store-bought fish sticks for an even faster meal.
Smarts #1: Be sure to check the package on the fish sticks and grab a version that uses gluten-free breading.
Smarts #2: Don't forget to season the coleslaw with some salt right before serving. Salt will help the other flavors to really pop.
