Love Your Leftovers

Reheating seafood is tricky business. It can dry out very quickly if you Don’t keep an eye on it. For this recipe, try to reheat the salmon in large pieces instead of flaked like many of the other recipes. Also, wrapping the salmon in foil and rubbing it with some oil keeps the moisture locked in.

These tacos just simply Don’t taste like leftovers. They are delicious, and you’d be crazy not to try them if you have some leftover fish.
