Ingredients
- 2 bell peppers, each cut into 8 pieces
- 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 pound ground beef chuck
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 2 teaspoons ground ancho chili powder or standard chili powder
- 8 corn tortillas, warmed

Directions
- Heat oven to 450° F. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the bell peppers and garlic with 1 tablespoon of the oil and ¼ teaspoon each salt and black pepper. Roast until tender, 12 to 14 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and ½ teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the beef, corn, and chili powder and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned, 6 to 8 minutes more.
- Divide the beef mixture among the tortillas and top with the avocado, Cheddar, salsa, and cilantro. Serve with the bell peppers and lime wedges.

FRESH PICK
Cranberries
High in vitamin C, these hard, tart berries are grown in bogs in colder regions of North America and Europe. They’re almost
always eaten cooked, as in the classic Thanksgiving relish.
