Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the sliced zucchini, red onion, bell peppers, and mushrooms with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Grill the vegetables for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and have nice grill marks.

  5. On a flat surface, place a tortilla and sprinkle one side generously with shredded cheddar cheese.
