Roast Pumpkin Tacos

Flavour-Packed Pumpkin Tacos

These tacos bring a fun and colourful twist to mealtime, with roasted pumpkin, fresh toppings and a hint of spice. They’re light, satisfying and perfect for sharing, whether you’re enjoying them as a family dinner or a relaxed lunch. You’re going to love how easily they come together and how vibrant they look on the table.

Easy Steps to Build Your Tacos

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C.

2. In a bowl, toss diced pumpkin, onion, curry powder, turmeric and garlic. Season with salt and pepper.

3. Spread the mixture on a lined tray and roast for 20–30 minutes until tender.

4. Warm taco shells in the oven for about five minutes until crisp.

5. Mix cumin and lemon juice into yoghurt to make a quick dressing.

6. To assemble, layer lettuce, roasted pumpkin, homemade tomato salsa, and yoghurt inside each taco.

7. Top with fresh coriander and enjoy straight away.

Why These Tacos Stand Out

Pumpkin is naturally rich in fibre and carotenoids, which give it that bright orange colour. Turmeric adds depth of flavour along with its distinctive golden hue. Combined with fresh herbs and yoghurt, the result is a balanced mix of textures and tastes that makes each bite refreshing and satisfying.

Share the Taco Joy
