Ingredients
  

2 bell peppers (one red, one yellow), diced

1 medium zucchini, diced

1 small red onion, chopped

1 cup corn (fresh or frozen)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

8 small corn or flour tortillas

1 cup crumbled goat cheese

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Lime wedges, for serving

Optional: hot sauce or salsa for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the vegetables.

    Prepare the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced bell peppers, zucchini, chopped red onion, and corn. Drizzle with olive oil, then season with smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss the mixture thoroughly to ensure all the vegetables are evenly coated in oil and spices.

      Roast the Vegetables: Spread the seasoned vegetable mixture evenly onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Place the sheet in the preheated oven and roast for approximately 20–25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and exhibit a slight caramelization. Make sure to stir the vegetables halfway through for even cooking.

        Warm the Tortillas: While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the tortillas. You can warm them by placing them in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable. Alternatively, wrap them in aluminum foil and place them in the oven during the last 5–10 minutes of the roasting time.

          Assemble the Tacos: After removing the roasted vegetables from the oven, it’s time to build your tacos. Take a warm tortilla and add a generous scoop of the roasted veggie mixture. Crumble goat cheese generously over the top, followed by a few slices of fresh avocado and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

            Serve: Present your delicious tacos with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top. For those who enjoy a kick, offer hot sauce or salsa as optional garnishes to enhance the flavor.
