I know it's December and all, but I made these guys back in the summertime when zucchini and corn were cheap.
Those were the days.
These tacos make a wonderful quick meal without using the oven and are delicious and really healthy. And no one ever said you can't have good tacos in the winter as well.
Word to the wise: the filling for these only stays good for 1-2 days (a sad surprise for us leftover fiends), so plan to eat them pretty quickly.
