Rockfish Tacos with Cranberry Apple Salsa, Cotija, Pumpkin Seeds on Corn Tortillas

Looking for a spin on your next taco night?  Are you wanting to eat more fish?  Here is a quick recipe that covers both.  Swapping out beef or turkey with fish, offers a balance of lean proteins and heart healthy fats.  Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish may help to improve heart health and boost our moods. Current recommendations are for adults to eat 8oz, or about two servings of fish per week.
