Notes/Tips:

  • You can roast the vegetables from before and keep. Roast in the oven again for 5-7 mins and then toss in sauces just before serving.

  • These fillings work as any taco shells- hard and soft. These also work as a burrito filling.

  • You can use store bought queso or make your own. I prefer it home made. The recipe is here.

  • Make sure the veggies are crispy when baking in the oven.

  • Jalapeños help to add spice. You can skip it if you like or even chop it up and roast it in the oven with the other veggies.
