These grilled vegetable tacos are a great recipe for a summer barbecue or camping trip with friends. You can also use a grill pan on the stove if you don't have an outdoor grill.

I have one word: WOW!
My boyfriend and I are long-time vegetarians that have recently turned vegan. We made this recipe on the grill last night, and it was INCREDIBLE! This recipe is definitely entertaining-worthy for vegans and non-vegans alike. We have decided to make it a new staple meal in our household.
Thank you for the amazing recipe! We kept some of the extra vegetable rub to try on our veggie burgers since it was so fantastic. We loved it 🙂
Thanks,
Katie
Well Vegan
