Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Arrange cut vegetables on large rimmed baking pan. Brush both sides with olive oil and squeeze juice of 1/2 lime over vegetables. Combine cumin, chili powder, salt, cayenne and black pepper to taste in small bowl. Sprinkle on veggies.
Step 2
Heat grill. Arrange vegetables on oiled grate or in grill pan. Grill 8 to 10 minutes, turning as necessary, until warm and tender, adding avocado halves halfway through, cut-side down.
Step 3
Chop veggies and slice avocados. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Serve in warm tortillas with wedges of remaining lime. Top with cheese and garnish with cilantro.
Step 4
TIP: To warm tortillas on grill, arrange tortillas in single layer on hot grate. Heat 2 to 3 minutes until warm through and small brown spots appear, turning once or twice.
