IDDSI Levels 4 and 5

  Hello from Friendly Foods! Today we will introduce a recipe for patients who can eat minced/moist and pureed foods. 

Today we will be making modified fish tacos!


The guacamole serves as our moist portion to make this meal level 4-5 friendly and many have an aversion to avocados so a completely smooth salsa or Mexican crema can be used as a substitute. Please refrain from using any battered or breaded fish as it may cause complications.

This recipe yields 2 servings

Ingredients

2 pieces raw tilapia

5 tablespoons lime juice

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt

Cumin

Paprika

Chili powder

2 avocados

Prep:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lay fish in an 8x8 pan; season and dress fish with olive oil and lime juice on each side. Place in the oven for 10 minutes.

Combine avocados, salt, and 3 tablespoons of lime juice with a fork to make the guacamole.

Check fish with a fork; twist fork to see if meat separates (meaning it is fully cooked). Shred fish and mix with guacamole. 

Serve with additional desired soft toppings (such as cheese) on a soft tortilla and enjoy!
