Ingredients
  

1 medium zucchini, diced into bite-sized cubes

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 yellow bell pepper, diced

1 red onion, thinly sliced

2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

8 corn tortillas

1 cup crumbled feta cheese

1 ripe avocado, sliced

Fresh cilantro, roughly chopped (for garnish)

Extra lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it's hot enough for roasting.

    Prepare the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced zucchini, diced red bell pepper, diced yellow bell pepper, sliced red onion, and halved cherry tomatoes.

      Season the Veggies: Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the vegetables. Sprinkle the smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, as well as salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Use your hands or a spoon to toss everything together until each piece of vegetable is well coated in the seasoning blend.

        Roast the Vegetables: Transfer the seasoned vegetables onto a large baking sheet in an even layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring once midway through cooking for even browning.

          Warm the Tortillas: While the veggies are roasting, warm the corn tortillas. You can do this by placing them in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or wrapping them in aluminum foil and heating in the oven for 5 minutes until soft and pliable.

            Assemble the Tacos: Once the roasted veggies are done, remove them from the oven. Take each warm tortilla and pile a generous amount of the roasted vegetables in the center. Top with a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese and a few slices of avocado.

              Garnish and Serve: Finish by sprinkling fresh cilantro over the assembled tacos. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for guests to squeeze over their tacos for an extra burst of flavor.

                  Presentation Tips: Arrange the tacos on a large platter, allowing each to be topped with additional cilantro, and serve the lime wedges in a small bowl alongside for easy access. Consider adding a splash of colorful salsa on the side for an additional kick!
