I thought the combination of flavors was delicious. I did end up using equal parts onion/zucchini sliced long and thin and the same amount of red/green/yellow peppers (including one hot red pepper) sliced thin and used pinto instead of kidney beans, (my favorite bean because it turns so creamy and yummy when you mix it around with the veggies). The sweet flavors of the peppers/beans really went well with the spices. I also used whole grain tortillas toasted lightly on each side in vegetable oil. Thanks for a great fast recipe!
