I am a newlywed and learned how to make these salmon tacos after I had something similar at a restaurant in town. My husband loves them and thinks I am a brilliant chef!

Step 3
Bake salmon in the preheated oven until until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes.
Step 4
While the salmon is baking, make the salsa: Mix corn, black beans, tomato, red onion, and cilantro in a bowl.
Step 5
Flake cooked salmon into smaller pieces with a fork.
Step 6
Divide flaked salmon, salsa, and Cheddar cheese among warm tortillas. Wrap tortillas around filling and serve with sour cream and guacamole.
