Ingredients

• 3 large Bell peppers (mixed colors)
• 1 large Red onion
• 2 medium Zucchini
• 8 oz Mushrooms (button or cremini)
• 3 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tsp Chili powder
• 1 tsp Cumin
• 1 tsp Smoked paprika
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 8 small Flour or corn tortillas
• 1 large Lime
• 0.25 cup Cilantro (optional)
• 1 large Avocado (optional)
• 0.5 cup Salsa (optional)
• 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Slice the bell peppers and red onion into thin strips. Cut the zucchini into half-moons, and slice the mushrooms into quarters.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced vegetables. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Toss the vegetables until they are evenly coated with the oil and spices.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned vegetables in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 6

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they’re tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 7

While the vegetables are roasting, warm the tortillas by wrapping them in foil and placing them in the oven during the last 5 minutes of roasting or heating them individually in a dry skillet over medium heat.

Step 8

Once the vegetables are done, remove them from the oven and drizzle with the juice of one lime. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro, if using.

Step 9

To assemble, fill each tortilla with a generous portion of the roasted vegetables. Top with optional toppings like sliced avocado, salsa, and sour cream, if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful roasted vegetable fajitas!
