Taco Filling

Method

Preparing the Taco Filling

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until they begin to soften.

  2. 2

    Add Zucchini and Corn

    Next, add the diced zucchini and corn kernels to the skillet. Continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Beans and Seasonings

    Stir in the black beans, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Assembling the Tacos

  1. 4

    Prepare Taco Shells

    Warm the taco shells in the oven or microwave according to package instructions to make them pliable.

  2. 5

    Fill Taco Shells

    Spoon the veggie filling into each taco shell, generously filling them.

  3. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Top each taco with slices of avocado, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
