• servings: 5 servings
• active time: 15 minutes
• total time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

1 large head cauliflower, cut into small florets

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons taco seasoning

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice, from 1 lime

10 (6-inch) corn or flour tortillas

2 cups shredded red cabbage

⅓ cup roughly chopped cilantro

2 avocados

1 garlic clove, minced

½ cup sour cream

½ teaspoon sea salt

¼ cup freshly squeezed lime juice, from 1 lime

¼ cup cilantro leaves

For the batter:

3/4 cup flour

2 tablespoon corn starch, or potato starch

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt, (reduce for lower sodium or if using seasoning with salt in it)

Optional seasoning:

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/4 teaspoon turmeric

1/4 cup water

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400°F with a rack in the center position.

Season the cauliflower

In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, taco seasoning, and lime juice then spread out on a large rimmed baking sheet.

Roast the cauliflower

Roast in the oven for 30 minutes or until cauliflower is tender with crispy edges.

Make the crema

Meanwhile, prepare the avocado crema. To a food processor or small blender, add the avocado, garlic, sour cream, salt, lime juice and cilantro, blend until smooth.

Cook the tortillas

Heat ½ teaspoon of the remaining oil in a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil glistens, add one tortilla and cook until toasty and warmed, about 30 seconds per side. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, adding additional oil to the skillet for each, as needed. Stack the toasted tortillas and wrap them in a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm.

Assemble and serve

Divide the roasted cauliflower between the tortillas. Top evenly with shredded cabbage and cilantro. Drizzle with avocado crema and serve.
