Ingredients in easy roasted veggie tacos

Roasted veggies: (of course!) We quickly roasted seasoned cauliflower, red bell pepper, and red onion on a sheet pan

Quick guacamole: This guacamole recipe is one we used in our Chicken Taco Lettuce Wraps and comes together with a few ingredients that we are already using in this Easy Roasted Veggie Tacos recipe: Avocado, lime, red onion and spices

Chipotle sauce: Ours is a healthy version, made with Greek yogurt, chipotle peppers, lime juice, and spices

Garnish: Lime wedges and cilantro make the perfect toppings for these tacos, along with bowls of extra chipotle and guac!

Instructions

  1. For the roasted veggies: Preheat oven to 400F. Cut and slice cauliflower, red bell pepper and red onion into florets and slices and toss with olive oil, paprika, chili powder, cumin and salt. Place on a baking sheet (line with parchment paper for easy clean up) and roast for 20 minutes
  2. For the guacamole: While the veggies are roasting, make the guacamole by slicing open the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Squeeze in lime juice, add salt, diced red onion and mix together. Taste to decide if you need more salt. Spoon into a bowl for serving
  3. For the chipotle sauce: Prepare the Chipotles: If you prefer less heat, remove the seeds from the chipotle peppers. Chop the peppers finely
  4. Mix Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, chopped chipotles, adobo sauce, minced garlic, lime juice, and smoked paprika (if using). Stir until all the ingredients are well incorporated
  5. Season: Taste the sauce and add salt and pepper as needed. You can also adjust the heat by adding more chipotle peppers or adobo sauce
  6. Putting it all together: Set out bowls of roasted veggies, guacamole, chipotle sauce, lime wedges, chopped cilantro, and corn tortillas. Either assemble them for your guests or let them customize with their own toppings
