Ingredients

  • 1 Red Bell Pepper
  • 1 Yellow Bell Pepper
  • 2 medium Zucchini
  • 1 Red Onion
  • 4 cloves Garlic
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Ground Cumin
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1 tsp Dried Oregano
  • 1 pinch Chili Powder
  • Black Pepper
  • 8 Flour Tortillas
  • 2 cups Cooked Rice
  • 1 can (15 oz) Black Beans
  • 2 Tomatoes
  • 1 Avocado
  • 1 Lime
  • Hot Sauce
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro

Instructions

  1. Slice the zucchinis and peppers using a food processor with the slicing blade. (You can also slice by hand, but I find this process much quicker).
  2. Heat the oil over medium in a large pan. Add the onion with a pinch of salt and sauté until soft and translucent (around 5-6 minutes). Add the garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes, taking care not to let it burn.
  3. Add the peppers, zucchinis and spices, stirring well to ensure everything is coated, around 2-3 minutes. Reduce the heat slightly and cover, cooking until the veggies have softened and cooked through, around 6 minutes.
  4. Remove from the heat and adjust for flavor. Serve with warm tortillas, Mexican Rice and black beans and top with avocado, tomatoes, hot sauce and lime.
