Roasted Vegetables for Mexican Nite

Submitted by SpicyGirl

"As a vegetarian I always look for new ways to turn the same old dish into something new and tasty. Since I love Mexican food I add these veggies to my burritos, tacos, and tostados. On a recent trip to Washington DC my sister took me to a place that does Mexican food with Californian style. This following recipe is an inspiration from our lunch (and dinner) that day. The vegetables are only limited by your palate."

I added 1 1/2 zucchini and another 1/2 yellow squash and I still thought there was probably a teaspoon too much of the cumin. I probably used less than 1/2 packet of the taco seasoning so that could be why the cumin tasted so strong. I'll try it again though.

I wanted veggies and mexican and found this recipe. It was greatand I'm not that big of a veggie fan. I had some left over so I made a little soup by mixing it with some chicken broth and roast chicken. It was good so I'll try making extra next time and then make more soup!

This is very good. I left out the fresh garlic because I was out and is was still great. Thank you.
