Mojo de Ajo Veggie Tacos in Zucchini Tortillas

Directions:                    

  1. Preheat oven to 375°.
  2. In a small baking dish, combine garlic and olive oil. Cover dish with foil; bake until garlic is tender and brown about 15-20 minutes. Add lime juice, lime zest, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Return to oven, bake for 10 minutes. Remove pan from oven, pour mixture into a blender, blend until smooth. Reserve.
  3. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine grated zucchini and remaining 1 teaspoon salt; let sit 5 minutes. Using paper towels, squeeze out any excess liquid. Add 1 teaspoon pepper, baking mix, garlic powder, onion powder, cilantro and eggs; mix thoroughly.
  4. On a parchment-lined baking sheet, scoop ¼ cup zucchini mixture for each tortilla. Using a rolling pin or by hand, flatten mixture into discs of tortilla thickness. Bake until tortillas are firm and edges begin to brown, approximately 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven, let cool. Repeat with any remaining batter.
  5. In a large pan, over high heat, sauté ½ cup blended garlic mixture, mushrooms, asparagus, red onion, bell peppers and Brussels sprouts until tender. Divide sautéed vegetables evenly among tortillas, garnish with avocado slices.
