Equipment

  • grill
  • grill topper
  • large bowl
  • cutting board

Ingredients
  

For the seasoning blend

  • 2 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 0.5 tablespoon salt
  • 1.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1.5 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper

For the vegetables

  • 1 green bell pepper sliced into ¼-inch strips
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced into ¼-inch strips
  • 1 yellow bell pepper sliced into ¼-inch strips
  • 1 large red onion cut into ¼-inch thick wedges
  • 1 large zucchini sliced and quartered
  • 1 pint cremini mushrooms caps quartered
  • 1.5 tablespoon avocado oil

For serving

  • 16 corn tortillas warmed
  • 1 fresh lime cut into wedges
  • 0.25 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • Guacamole optional
  • sour cream optional

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Combine all dried spices in a small bowl: chili powder, oregano, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Set aside.
  • While preparing the spice blend, slice the green, red, and yellow bell peppers into ¼-inch strips, cut the red onion into ¼-inch thick wedges, slice the zucchini lengthwise then quarter each slice, and quarter the cremini mushroom caps. Arrange all cut vegetables on a large cutting board or platter for easy access during grilling.

Grilling

  • Preheat your grill and grill topper to 350°F, allowing about 10-15 minutes for it to reach temperature.
  • In a large bowl, toss the sliced bell peppers and red onion wedges with ½ tablespoon of avocado oil until evenly coated.
  • Carefully spread the oiled peppers and onions in an even layer on the grill topper. Grill for about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through (around the 7-8 minute mark).
  • While the peppers and onions finish cooking, toss the quartered zucchini with ½ tablespoon of avocado oil in a separate bowl. After 2-3 minutes, add the mushroom quarters to the grill topper.
  • Once all vegetables are on the grill, sprinkle about 2 teaspoons of the spice blend evenly over everything and gently toss to coat.
  • Warm your corn tortillas on the grill or in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side.
  • Transfer the finished grilled vegetables to a serving platter. Arrange the warm tortillas, lime wedges, fresh cilantro, and optional guacamole and sour cream on the table.
