Chili Lime Tilapia- With Avocado Topping

This super easy and cheap recipe will be a hit with everyone! Full of cilantro and chili spice this will give your Mexican night a healthy twist! I serve with cilantro lime black beans and a veggie. This was a Sunday clear out the fridge meal so the only vegetable I had was zucchini. Zucchini isn't traditionally served with Mexican but I seasoned it like I would Mexican street corn (See recipe) and it actually worked pretty well! This is an example of getting creative with ingredients that you have on hand. Sometimes it doesn't work and sometimes you'll be pleasantly surprised!
