8 small tortillas (corn or flour)
2 tablespoons olive oil

Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Season the Peppers: In a bowl, toss the sliced bell peppers with olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Grill the Peppers: Place the seasoned bell peppers on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred.
Warm the Tortillas: While the peppers are grilling, warm the tortillas on the grill for about 1 minute on each side until they are pliable.
Assemble the Tacos: Once the peppers are done, remove them from the grill and place a generous amount on each tortilla. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Melt the Cheese: Return the assembled tacos to the grill for an additional 1-2 minutes, just until the cheese melts.
Serve: Garnish with fresh cilantro, sliced avocado, and salsa if desired. Enjoy your grilled bell pepper and mozzarella tacos warm.
