Ingredients
- 2 zucchini sliced lengthwise
- 2 bell peppers any color, cut into strips
- 1 red onion cut into thick rings
- 2 portobello mushrooms sliced
- 12 corn tortillas
- 1 cup fresh cilantro roughly chopped
- 2 limes cut into wedges
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: avocado cotija cheese, Mexican crema
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F). If using a grill pan, heat it over medium-high heat.
- In a small bowl, mix chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper with olive oil to create your seasoning mixture.
- Brush the vegetables with the seasoning mixture, making sure they're evenly coated.
- Place vegetables on the hot grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they develop nice grill marks and are tender but still slightly crisp.
- While the vegetables are grilling, wrap your tortillas in foil and place them on the cooler side of the grill to warm through.
- Once grilled, slice the vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
- Assemble your tacos by filling each warm tortilla with grilled vegetables, fresh cilantro, and your choice of toppings.
- Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
