These tacos are inspired by the bright and bold flavors of Mexican street food. Sauce Pantry’s Jalapeño Verde Sauce adds a tangy, spicy kick to these simple yet flavorful tacos. Perfect for a light meal or a fun taco night, the combination of grilled veggies and verde sauce is a delicious twist on a classic.


Pro Tips:

  • Tortilla Warming: Warm your tortillas on a dry skillet for extra flavor and pliability.
  • Extra Heat: If you love spice, drizzle a little extra Jalapeño Verde Sauce on top or add sliced jalapeños to amp up the heat.

Things to Watch Out For:

  • Overcooking Vegetables: Keep an eye on your veggies while grilling to avoid burning. You want them tender with a bit of char, but not overly soft.
  • Balancing Flavors: Taste the Jalapeño Verde Sauce before assembling the tacos. If it's too spicy for your liking, temper it with a little sour cream or guacamole.

Process:

  1. Dice & Sautee Vegetables:

    • Preheat your pan to medium-high heat. Add the bell peppers, onions, and zucchini with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Sauté for few minutes until tender.
  2. Warm the Tortillas:

    • While the vegetables are grilling, warm your tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, until they are soft and pliable.
  3. Assemble the Tacos:

    • Lay the warm tortillas flat and divide the vegetables evenly among them. Drizzle each taco with Sauce Pantry Jalapeño Verde Sauce.
  4. Finish and Serve:

    • Top the tacos with crumbled feta cheese and fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges for a zesty finish.
