ZUCCHINI TACOS WITH OVEN-ROASTED VEGGIES AND DILL-INFUSED GUACAMOLE 🥑🌮
HAPPY NEW YEAR, my lovely steemit friends. Let's hope 2019 will become a year packed with smiles, happiness, and good health.
Though it will be a challenging year, both personally and professionally, I am ready for the new adventures that lay ahead of us. What about you? Are you ready for 2019?
Though the year will start with a 7-day work week, after that we have 7 days off and looking forward to going on a small road trip. Or do absolutely nothing. 2018 has been crazy busy and ever since we opened the doors of our bakery in May, we haven't had much time for ourselves.
Though we aren't sure what we are going to do yet, relaxation is the main goal. So much to do in the coming year and so much that will change. So first things first.... RELOAD.
But let's talk food now......
ZUCCHINI TACOS WITH OVEN-ROASTED VEGGIES AND DILL-INFUSED GUACAMOLE 🥑🌮
INGREDIENTS (serves 2)
1.5 cup shredded purple cabbage
2 cups salad greens of your choice
For the zucchini tacos (makes 3 small tacos each)
1 cup grated zucchini, make sure to squeeze as much liquid out of the grated zucchini and pack tightly for measuring
½ cup flour of your choice
1 flax or chia egg (= 1 tbsp chia or flax seeds mixed with 3 tbsp water)
1.5 tsp dried oregano
½ onion, sliced
Dried oregano and thyme to taste
Sea salt and black pepper to taste
For the roasted pumpkin and chickpeas
1.5 cup cooked chickpeas (½ cup dried = 1.5 cup cooked = 1 15 oz can drained)
2 cups pumpkin or butternut squash, cubed
½ bell pepper (any color), sliced
½ onion, sliced
Dried oregano and thyme to taste
Sea salt and black pepper to taste
Dill avocado sauce
1 avocado
⅓-½ cup freshly chopped dill
1 small tomato, roughly chopped
2 clove of garlic
1 small lime, juice only
A drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil
Sea salt and black pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 180C or 355F.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a silicone mat instead.
- Prepare the chia or flax egg by adding 1 tbsp of the seeds to 3 tbsp water. Mix well and let sit for a few minutes.
- Combine all zucchini taco ingredients in a mixing bowl. Using your fingers or a fork, mix until the mixture comes together. If there is still a lot of water left in your mixture coming from the zucchini, add more flour to create a dryer dough. Divide the dough into equal balls and press them into circles. Bake for 20-30 minutes in a preheated oven. Or until crisp and browned.
- Meanwhile, add pumpkin, chickpeas, onion, and bell pepper to another baking sheet or oven-safe dish. Drizzle with cooking oil and season with herbs. Toss to coat and roast for 20 to 30 minutes. Or until nicely browned and crisp.
- In a blender, combine all avocado dill sauce ingredients. Process until smooth texture. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- When the veggies and tacos are ready, assemble to your liking!
