Roasted Vegetable Tacos
- one small eggplant, chopped into bite sized pieces about 1/2 inch
- one zucchini, chopped into bite sized pieces about 1/2 inch
- one yellow squash, chopped into bite sized pieces about 1/2 inch
- one ear fresh corn, shaved off the cob into kernels
- one poblano pepper, chopped into bite sized pieces about 1/2 inch
- one yellow onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- one bunch fresh radishes (about 6), thinly sliced
- 2 fresh limes
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- one bunch of cilantro
- One can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/4 cup of pepitas, toasted (I toast mine for about 5 minutes in the toaster oven on 350)
- one avocado, chopped up for topping
- 1 cup of whatever type of cheese you like on your tacos, we used a Mexican blend
- tortillas, I use corn tortillas
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees
- Toss the corn, eggplant, zucchini, squash, poblano pepper, olive oil and garlic salt and pepper on a big baking sheet or jelly roll pan.
- Roast the veggies for about 20 minutes until tender- tossing a couple times.
- While the veggies roast, toss the radishes with the juice of one fresh lime, the red wine vinegar and a little salt - set aside. This lets them get an almost pickled flavor.
- Also while the veggies roast: Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet. Toss in the onion and cook for about 5 minutes until softened. Add in the garlic, black beans, and juice of one lime. Cook until heated through. Toss in about a handful of chopped cilantro right before you serve.
- To assemble the tacos on your tortilla: layer a spoonful of black bean mix, veggie mix, radishes, avocado, cheese and top with toasted pepitas and more chopped cilantro if you want.
**On Bryce's dish scale, it's a 3. (reminder 1-5, 5 being the worst). Baking sheet, cutting board/knife, skillet, bowl to mix radishes in.
