ROASTED VEGGIE TACOS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Wash and chop 3-4 small zucchini or summer squash into rounds. Cut the zucchini rounds in half.
• Wash and cut 1-2 bell peppers into large chunks. You can use any color bell pepper you like.
• Place the chopped veggies on a baking sheet. Feel free to use 2 baking sheets if the veggies don't fit onto one pan.
• Drizzle the veggies with 2 Tbsp. olive oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle 1 tsp. smoked paprika, 1 tsp. garlic powder, 1 tsp. onion powder, 1 tsp. ground cumin, 1 tsp. Adobo seasoning, and 1/8 tsp. or so of salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
• Place the baking sheet(s) in the oven and roast for 20-22 minutes. Stir the veggies once during the roasting process to prevent sticking. Remove the pan(s) once the veggies are roasted and set aside.
• Heat 1 can of black beans (or beans of choice) on the stove top as the veggies are roasting according to package instructions.
• Chop 1-2 cups of spinach or leafy greens. Cut 1 avocado into slices. Mince 1/2 cup fresh cilantro.
• To serve: Heat tortillas if desired. Place a few spoonfuls of black beans and a few spoonfuls of roasted veggies onto tortilla. Sprinkle chopped greens, cilantro, and Queso Fresco cheese on taco. Garnish with avocado, a squeeze of lime, and a dash of hot sauce.

SHEET PAN VEGGIE TACOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425.
• On a large, parchment-lined baking sheet add cauliflower florets, cabbage, and onion. Generously coat veggies with olive oil, sprinkle the spice mixture and salt over top, and mix thoroughly until veggies are well coated (hands are the best tool for this).
• Roast veggies for 30-35 minutes until tender and browning. Stir at the halfway point. With five minutes left to go, toss your corn over the veggie mixture and return to the oven for the remaining minutes.
• While the veggies are roasting, prep the cilantro, mango, lime wedges, and sauce (or sour cream). Set aside for serving.
• Just before serving, grill or warm-up your corn tortillas - this only takes a minute and shouldn't be done too far in advance or the tortillas will become hard. If not using a grill, place tortillas in a dry pan over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, flip, and cook for another minute before serving.

SHEET PAN TACO BAKE

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 4 minutes. Add the cumin, 2 teaspoons of the chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Push the beef aside to make a space in the middle of the skillet and add the tomato paste. Cook, stirring, until the tomato paste darkens a shade or two, about 1 minute, then stir it into the beef. Add 1/2 cup water, bring to a rapid simmer and cook, stirring, until the water has almost completely reduced, about 2 minutes. Keep hot.
• Preheat the broiler. Spray an 18-by-13-inch sheet pan with cooking spray.
• Spread the hash browns on the prepared sheet pan, toss with 1 teaspoon salt and the remaining 4 tablespoons vegetable oil and 1 teaspoon chili powder and pat into an even layer. Broil until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Toss well with a heatproof spatula, pat back into an even layer and return to the broiler until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes more. Top with the spiced ground beef and Cheddar and broil until the cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Add your favorite toppings, cut into pieces and serve.
