My two kids love tacos, big surprise right! They ask if we could eat it every Friday, as all kids in their ages. I try to make them eat more fish, but it's not an easy task I tell you. Last weekend I wrote tacos on the menu as usual. But I served it with double breaded fish instead, as an attempt to get them to eat fish. The kids were a bit suspicious but bought the idea that it was just a different taco than usual. What aren't you doing to get the kids to eat more fish.
