Taco Filling

Method

Prepare the Taco Filling

  1. 1

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the diced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, onion, and zucchini to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  3. 3

    Add Corn and Beans

    Stir in the corn and black beans, mixing well with the sautéed vegetables.

  4. 4

    Season the Mixture

    Sprinkle in the cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

Assemble the Tacos

  1. 5

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate pan, briefly warm the soft tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  2. 6

    Fill the Tacos

    Lay each tortilla flat and scoop a generous portion of the veggie filling in the center.

  3. 7

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle crumbled fresh cheese, chopped cilantro, and a dollop of sour cream or yogurt on top of the filling. Drizzle with salsa or hot sauce according to your preference.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Fold the tortillas over the filling and serve the tacos immediately while warm.
