These southern-style veggie tacos are packed with flavor and are easy to make since we roast everything in the same pan to make clean up a breeze.  Roasting the veggies intensifies their natural flavor, then we’ve stirred in our salsa to add a rich tomato flavor with a kick. Serve the veggie mixture in corn tortillas and top with cilantro for fresh flavor and French fried onions for extra crunch!


 

Ingredients

  • 1 large zucchini (about 12 ounces), diced (about 2 cups)
  • 1 large red bell pepper, diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 1 extra large onion, diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup frozen okra, thawed and drained
  • 1 cup frozen lima beans, thawed and drained
  • 1 cup Pace® Roasted Poblano & Corn Salsa
  • 12 corn tortilla (6-inch), warmed (to release the corn flavor, we like to brown them in a hot skillet)
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/2 cup French fried onions

Instructions

  • Step 1

    Set the oven to 425°F.  Place the zucchini, red pepper and diced onion onto a rimmed baking sheet.  Season the vegetables as desired.  Drizzle with the oil and toss to coat.

  • Step 2

    Roast for 15 minutes.  Add the okra, and lima beans and roast for 15 minutes more or until the vegetables are browned.  Remove the vegetables to a large bowl.  Add the salsa and toss to coat.

  • Step 3

    Spoon about 1/3 cup vegetable mixture on each tortilla.  Top with the cilantro and French fried onions and additional salsa, if desired..  Fold the tortillas around the filling.
