Ingredients:
– 2 bell peppers (any color), sliced
– 1 zucchini, sliced
– 1 yellow squash, sliced
– 1 red onion, sliced
– 1 cup cherry tomatoes
– 1 ear of corn, husked
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– Juice of 1 lime
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon chili powder
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 8 small flour or corn tortillas
– Optional toppings: sliced avocado, salsa, shredded lettuce, chopped cilantro, lime wedges, cotija cheese or vegan cheese alternative
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Veggies: In a large bowl, combine the sliced bell peppers, zucchini, yellow squash, red onion, and cherry tomatoes. Cut the corn kernels off the cob and add them to the bowl.
2. Make the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
3. Marinate the Veggies: Pour the marinade over the vegetables and toss until evenly coated. Let the veggies marinate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
4. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure the grates are clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
5. Grill the Veggies: Place the marinated vegetables directly on the grill grates, ensuring they are in a single layer. Grill for 5-7 minutes per side or until tender and lightly charred.
6. Warm the Tortillas: While the veggies are grilling, warm them on the grill for about 30 seconds per side or until they are soft and pliable.
7. Assemble the Tacos: Once the veggies are done, remove them from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter. Fill each tortilla with a generous scoop of grilled veggies.
8. Add Toppings: Top the tacos with sliced avocado, salsa, shredded lettuce, chopped cilantro, a squeeze of lime juice, and a sprinkle of cotija cheese or vegan cheese alternative, if desired.
9. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the grilled veggie tacos immediately, with extra toppings on the side for customization. Enjoy these meatless tacos’ fresh and flavorful taste on your camping adventure!
