Roasted Veggie Tacos
Roasted Veggie Tacos feature diced zucchini, poblano or bell pepper, and corn roasted with chili powder, cumin, garlic, and onion powders. The roasting process caramelizes the vegetables, boosting their natural sweetness while the spices add depth. The warm, soft corn tortillas serve as a vehicle for the savory-sweet filling, and optional garnishes like fresh salsa and cilantro add bright, fresh notes. This taco filling is flexible for additional vegetables or black beans.

Notes
- You can add mushrooms, onions, or garlic to the mix for extra flavor and texture; if using mushrooms, increase roasting time by 5-10 minutes to reduce moisture.
- Ensure vegetables are diced evenly to promote uniform roasting.
- Consider adding a can of black beans during mixing for added protein and heartiness.
- Grilling the vegetables on a grill tray provides a smoky alternative to oven roasting during summer.
