We love the crunch of the fish, & the zingy taste of the sauce.  In partnership with @gortonsseafood #AD we created seriously delicious, easy to make Baja fish burritos! 🐠 🌯

It is so easy to create TAKE OUT at home with Gorton’s Crunchy Breaded Fish Fillets! SWIPE LEFT to see all the fresh veggies we used in this super yummy Baja Fish Burrito!🌯⁠⁠
⁠⁠
We are seriously obsessed that these are so fast to make on a week night!! You can even make the sauce the night before, and slice up the veggies, so all you have to do is make the pico de Gallo and bake the fish, and warm the tortillas when you get home! Tell us that isn’t way easier that waiting in the TAKE OUT line!😁⁠⁠
