Cooking Steps
• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Trim and halve zucchini lengthwise; cut crosswise into ½-inch-thick half-moons. Roughly chop cilantro. • Toss potatoes and zucchini on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, Southwest Spice Blend, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. • Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 18-20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine crema and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper.
• Once veggies are done roasting, wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds.
• Divide tortillas between plates and fill with roasted veggies. Top with pico de gallo (draining first). Drizzle with cilantro crema and as much hot sauce as you like. • Serve tacos with tortilla chips on the side.

Reviews from our home cooks
My daughter loves potato tacos and this recipe made it easy to sneak in some veggies! She asked for seconds and they are so much healthier than the taco bell ones. I decided to air fry instead to get a really crispy crunch fast.
What I liked the most: light tasting, easy to cook and clean up. One zucchini was barely enough for four tacos. Didn't care for the vegan creama...it had a weird texture and taste.
Only 1 tiny critique - it is important to cut the potatoes down to smaller pieces if going to put in the oven the same time as the zucchini. I personally think the potatoes should go in around 10 minutes before adding the zucchini to the baking sheet. Otherwise, this was a delicious recipe!
These tacos were DELICIOUS! I loved the flavors. They were so easy to make and really filled me up.
MY FAVORITE MEAL BY FAR IM SO SERIOUS. I was SHOCKED by the flavor these little veggies could cultivate. Super easy to follow recipe, my favorite so far.
Vegan crema was unappealing and oddly sweet. The pico was a little watery. This didn't feel like a super high quality recipe. The portion size was good and the flavor of the veggies was tasty but the meal as a whole did not feel like it was worth the cost.
The combination of zucchini and potatoes did not make for a crispy taco filling. The zucchini was too watery. The vegan cream was really sour and not a pleasant taste.
There was really NOTHING to dislike. This dish was amazing. I'm not a vegetarian, but dishes like this might turn me into one.
New to trying vegan options. This one was really good!
I feel like it could've used one more veggie to fill up the taco a little more but still very delicious
