Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Bell peppers (red, green, yellow)
- 1 large Red onion
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 1.5 cups Mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 small Flour tortillas
- 1 whole Lime
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
- 1 large Avocado (optional)
- 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional)
Instructions
Wash and slice the bell peppers, red onion, zucchinis, and mushrooms into thin strips or bite-sized pieces.
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.
Add the sliced vegetables to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated in the marinade.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated vegetables and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred.
While the veggies are cooking, warm the flour tortillas in a separate skillet or in the microwave until soft and pliable.
Once the veggies are cooked, remove them from heat and squeeze the juice of one lime over them for a fresh, zesty flavor.
Chop the fresh cilantro and slice the avocado, if using, for garnishing.
Serve the vegetables hot on the warm tortillas. Garnish with fresh cilantro, sliced avocado, and a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
