Another great recipe to add to my "healthy" category. Okay so the lime mayo isn't really all that healthy but I'm sure you could use fat free or something and make it healthier. In the end, the flavor of it didn't really add a whole ton to the meal anyway so technically it could be left out and not be missed. We are also going to use Baja Fresh's pineapple salsa next time because it's spicier, so I'll update this with that recipe next time. Whenever I have a recipe that uses tortilla's but the main recipe is gluten-free, I am still considering it a gluten-free meal because I feel that I can still do something with it to keep it gluten-free like eliminating the tortilla and using it as a rice topper or putting it on corn tortilla chips.
**Update**- I'm not sure if the recipe I tried is similar to what they have at Baja Fresh, but it's super good! Check out this Spicy Pineapple Salsa!
