Grilled Veggie Tacos
Simple grilled veggie tacos are fresh, healthy, and full of so much flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 red, yellow, or orange bell pepper , chopped
- 1 small or medium zucchini , chopped
- 1 small red onion , chopped
- 2 ears corn , kernels removed
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground chipotle pepper
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
For serving:
- Corn or flour tortillas
- Avocado , chopped
- Queso fresco or cotija cheese
- Lime wedges
Instructions
- Make sure bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion are all chopped to roughly the same size for even cooking.
- Combine veggies with olive oil, salt, ground chipotle pepper, cumin, garlic powder and pepper.
- Preheat grill to medium high heat. Place grill basket directly onto the grill so it can preheat too.
- If you don't have a grill basket, spray a large sheet of aluminum foil with nonstick cooking spray and spread veggies on top in a single layer. Otherwise, spread veggies directly onto grill basket.
- Cook veggies on the grill for 5-7 minutes, stirring often, until veggies are softened and slightly charred.
- Remove veggies from the grill (if using foil, I like to slide it off the grill directly onto a sheet pan).
- To serve, fill tortillas with grilled veggies and top with avocado, cheese, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
