Directions

Warm olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add diced zucchini, bell pepper, and onion to pan with a pinch of salt and pepper. Saute until the onion becomes translucent and the zucchini and bell pepper start to brown around the edges. Turn the heat off, stir in the black beans, and set aside.
Mix yogurt, lime juice, and salt in a small bowl until incorporated. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Wrap tortillas in a clean, slightly damp kitchen towel, and heat in the microwave for 20 seconds.
Divide tortillas and evenly distribute the yogurt mixture. Spoon the cooked vegetables onto warmed tortillas and garnish with Mexican Cabbage Salad and hot sauce, if using.

Chef Tips
