Veggie Tacos Recipe

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: Makes 4 tacos (Serves 2) 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • Olive oil
  • 1 cup of roughly chopped zucchini or summer squash (1-2 zucchini or squash, depending on the size)
  • 1/2 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, chopped
  • 1 large fresh mild green chile, seeds and stem discarded, chopped (optional)
  • 1/2 fresh jalapeño pepper, seeds and stem discarded, minced (optional and can always add more for more heat)
  • Salt
  • 1 small to medium tomato, chopped
  • 4 corn tortillas (works best with soft tacos but you could substitute hard taco shells if that’s your preference)
  • Shredded cheese of your choosing
  • Taco seasoning (use your favorite)

Instructions

  1. Heat one to two tablespoons of oil in a large sauté pan on medium high heat. Add your zucchini, onions, garlic, chiles, and jalapeño to the pan. Sprinkle with the taco seasoning and salt. Stir to coat the vegetables with oil and to make sure everybody is seasoned. Cook until all are lightly browned. Stir in the tomatoes and lower the heat to low.
  2. Heat your tortillas according to package directions. This softens them up and makes them pliable.
  3. Load those things up and enjoy!
