Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 medium zucchini, cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch slices
1 medium summer squash, cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch slices
1 sweet onion, sliced
1 red bell pepper, cored and cut into quarters
1 orange or yellow bell pepper, cored and cut into quarters
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 medium lime, halved
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon chili powder
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 ripe avocado, halved and pitted
8 (6 inch) corn or flour tortillas, warmed
½ cup crumbled cotija or feta cheese
1 teaspoon Fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Arrange cut vegetables on large rimmed baking pan. Brush both sides with olive oil and squeeze juice of 1/2 lime over vegetables. Combine cumin, chili powder, salt, cayenne and black pepper to taste in small bowl. Sprinkle on veggies.
  • Heat grill. Arrange vegetables on oiled grate or in grill pan. Grill 8 to 10 minutes, turning as necessary, until warm and tender, adding avocado halves halfway through, cut-side down.
  • Chop veggies and slice avocados. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Serve in warm tortillas with wedges of remaining lime. Top with cheese and garnish with cilantro.
  • TIP: To warm tortillas on grill, arrange tortillas in single layer on hot grate. Heat 2 to 3 minutes until warm through and small brown spots appear, turning once or twice.
