• Zucchini, thinly sliced - 1 medium
• Red bell pepper, thinly sliced - 1 medium
• Red onion, thinly sliced - 1 medium
• Corn kernels - 1/2 cup

• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. On a baking sheet, spread the sliced zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat well.
3. Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
4. While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the corn tortillas by placing them on another baking sheet. Bake them in the oven for about 5 minutes until they are crispy.
5. Once the vegetables are done, take the tortillas out of the oven and spread a layer of black beans on each tortilla.
6. Top the black beans with the roasted vegetables, corn kernels, and slices of avocado.
7. Return the topped tortillas to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to warm everything through.
