Bobby Flay Fit Greek Tacos with Tzatziki and Tomato Relish Recipe

This post including prizing is in partnership with Crown Publishing.  All opinions and my love for tacos remain my own.

I love cookbooks, and one of my favorite chefs is Bobby Flay. He has a new cookbook, Bobby Flay Fit; it’s filled with recipes, like this Greek Tacos with Tzatziki and tomato relish recipe, that are packed with flavor and add a beautiful flare to the meal.

The New Year taunts us with resolutions. For the majority, it’s getting healthier. I say, “Eat more flavorful foods. This satisfies and helps you feel satisfied.

Bobby Flay Fit the cookbook filled with healthful recipe ideas. But make no mistake, Bobby Flay Fit also has dessert recipes to satisfy the sweet tooth. These recipes are so filled with color and flavors. The book includes recipes for those nights you’re pressed to get dinner on the table as well as recipes where you cut the herbs and have a little more prep work.

Greek Fish Tacos Recipe

Your Taco Tuesday is about to get a flavor boost. Crown Publishing gave permission for me to share one of the recipes from Bobby Flay Fit. My family chose Greek Tacos with Tzatziki and Tomato Relish.

Bobby Flay Greek Tacos

There is some minor prep work in this recipe. Cutting fresh herbs and slicing a tomato and onion. Don’t be intimidated, it doesn’t take long and the flavors your sow are SO worth it!

Insider Tip: The recipe states to “flake the fish,” however, we chose to chop it into chunks instead. It’s up to you!

The homemade tzatziki recipe is in the book. It’s delicious and whoa! So much more delicious than store-bought.
