    Total time: 45 minutes

    Pickled Peppers:

    In a small bowl, stir together the chiles, vinegar, salt and sugar, if
    using.

    Refried Pintos:

    In a small skillet over medium heat, heat the oil until it shimmers.
    Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until it
    begins to brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in the sazon and the beans,
    and using a fork, mash the beans into a rough paste. Stir in the lime
    juice, remove from heat and taste, adding salt and pepper if desired.

    Zucchini and Corn:

    If using a gas grill, preheat it to medium, or 350 to 400 degrees F.
    If grilling over charcoal, use a grill thermometer or use the hand
    method: If you can hold your hand an inch from the grill for about
    six seconds, the grill should be around 350 degrees F.

    In a large bowl, combine the scallions, zucchini, corn, olive oil and
    sazon. Use your hands to rub the oil and seasoning over every piece.
    Place the vegetables on the grill perpendicular to the grates and
    cook until lightly charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove
    from the grill and let sit until cool enough to handle but still
    warm, then roughly chop the scallions and zucchini, and scrape the
    corn off the cob. In a medium bowl, mix the chopped vegetables
    together.

    Tacos:

    To serve, spread a thin layer of refried beans onto each tortilla.
    Top with a mound of the chopped grilled vegetables, a few pieces of
    pickled chile, cheese, sour cream or yogurt, a squeeze of lime and a
    few cilantro sprigs, or as desired.
