Ingredients

4 small corn or flour tortillas
2 large red bell peppers, sliced
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your choice)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish (optional)
Sour cream or guacamole for serving (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Grill the Peppers: Toss the sliced red peppers with olive oil, cumin, salt, and pepper. Grill the peppers 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 pliable.
Assemble the Tacos: Place a portion of grilled red peppers on each tortilla and top with shredded cheese. Allow the heat from the peppers to melt the cheese slightly.
Serve: Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley, if desired. Serve the tacos with sour cream or guacamole on the side.
