instructions
    1

    Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat.

    2

    Slice the zucchini, bell pepper, and red onion into bite-sized pieces.

    3

    In a large bowl, combine the sliced vegetables with corn.

    4

    Drizzle in the olive oil, then squeeze the juice of the lime over the top.

    5

    Sprinkle in the chili powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

    6

    Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated in oil and seasoning.

    7

    Let the vegetables marinate for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.

    8

    Once the grill is hot, thread the vegetables onto skewers or place them directly on the grill.

    9

    Grill the vegetables for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until they are tender and have nice grill marks.

    10

    Remove from the grill and serve warm as a perfect side dish or topping for tacos.
