For a smokier flavor, grill the vegetables instead of sauteing them.

Have you ever served a taco salad in the heat of a Texas summer and wondered....What can I serve with this, or what can I serve as an opener? This recipe pairs well with a Taco salad, as an appetizer and also works well as a nutricious after school snack!
