The Most Delicious Tilapia Tostadas
Tilapia can get a bad rap and for good reason, it’s generalized as an unsustainably farm-raised fish that has a much lower nutrient profile compared to wild-caught sustainably sourced fish. However, the plus side to tilapia is that it can be a reasonably priced fish that is super lean and high in protein.
Being that I strive to find the best of all things available on the market to share, I recently found a tilapia from Regal Springs that checks all the boxes. You can find it at Costco under the Kirkland brand at the following locations: Store Locator in the fish section of the meat department. Their tilapia is the most sustainably sourced tilapia that I’ve found to date -- it’s also raised on freshwater lakes, free from antibiotics, growth hormones as well as chemicals. If you’re looking for a better tilapia option with really good, lean protein this is definitely the one.
