Ingredients
  

1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

1 medium zucchini, diced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 small red onion, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon chili powder

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust based on your heat preference)

Salt and black pepper to taste

8 small corn or flour tortillas

½ cup fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Lime wedges (for serving)

½ cup avocado or guacamole (optional topping)

¼ cup crumbled feta cheese (optional topping)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Grill: Begin by preheating your grill to medium-high heat if you're using a gas grill. Alternatively, if you're using a grill pan, place it over medium-high heat on the stove to ensure it gets nice and hot.

    Prepare the Vegetable Mixture: In a spacious mixing bowl, add the corn, diced zucchini, diced red bell pepper, diced red onion, and halved cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle the smoked paprika, ground cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper (if using), and season generously with salt and black pepper. Using a spatula or your hands, toss all the ingredients together until the vegetables are well coated with the spices and oil.

      Grill the Vegetables: Transfer the seasoned veggie mixture into a grill basket or create a tightly sealed foil packet to keep everything contained. Grill the vegetables for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. You're aiming for tender veggies with a slight char for that delicious smoky flavor. Once done, remove them from the grill and allow them to cool for a couple of minutes.

        Warm the Tortillas: As the veggies are grilling, it’s time to warm the tortillas. You can warm them directly on the grill for a few seconds on each side, place them in a pan over medium heat, or lay them in the oven covered with a clean kitchen towel. This will keep them soft and pliable.

          Assemble the Tacos: Take each warm tortilla and add a generous scoop of the grilled veggie mixture in the center. Top it off with chopped fresh cilantro, and if desired, add avocado or guacamole and crumbled feta cheese for additional creaminess and flavor.

            Serve and Enjoy: Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges on the side for a zesty squeeze on top. These Spicy BBQ Veggie Tacos are perfect for sharing with friends or family—enjoy the fresh flavors together!
