Ginger Lime Salmon Tacos with Pineapple Lemongrass Broccoli Slaw

I had the pleasure of cooking up this delicious meal for my dad and I to enjoy last night.  My dad doesn't get to enjoy fist at home regularly because my mom doesn't eat it, but since she wasn't home the opportunity was there.  I decided on fish tacos with a broccoli slaw since I wanted to dip into my mom's herb garden to add fresh flavor to the dish.

Everything was so fresh and delicious.  Adding the fresh herbs and seasonings enhanced this dish and made it a huge success!
