Have you heard I'm obsessed with Cauliflower? I swear sometimes it tastes like meat. I love it because it takes on the flavor of whatever you cook it in, and it's so healthy. This recipe gets it crispy and delicious. Inspiration came from a number of recipes I found online but huge shout out to Eating Well for the Chipolte Lime sauce. This was a combo of things we found fresh at our farmers market this season, but things you should be able to find year round.
Spicy Sweet Cauliflower Tacos
- ¼ cup lime juice (from about 2 limes)
- 2 tablespoons chopped chipotles in adobo sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon honey
- 3 cloves garlic
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large head cauliflower, cut into small bite sized floret
- 1 small red onion, halved and thinly sliced
- 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 8 corn tortillas
- ½ cup crumbled queso fresco
- 1 cup Sliced red cabbage
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1/2 cup micro greens
- 4-5 radishes thinly sliced (cut in half if large)
- 1/2 cup green salsa/hot sauce of some sort (I love herdez Salsa Verde, and recently found a hatch green chile salsa in a jar I loved)
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.
- Combine lime juice, chipotles, honey, garlic and salt in a blender. Process until mixed together well.
- Place cauliflower in a large bowl (microwave safe, this comes in handy later), add the sauce and stir to cover and coat.
- Transfer to the baking sheet. Sprinkle onion on top.
- Roast, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is browned in spots, but tender, and the onion is cooked down. This takes about 20 minutes.
- In the same bowl you tossed the cauliflower in, add your beans and toss around to soak up any of the sauce left. Heat in the microwave for about a minute, then mash beans with a fork so they smooth out.
- Heat tortillas either on a grill, directly on the gas stove top or in a pan. Do not take the microwave route or the taco shells won't hold up!
- To make a taco: Add mashed beans, then cauliflower and onions, top with cheese, cabbage, avocado, micro greens, radishes and salsa or hot sauce.
**2 on Bryce's Dish scale since I reuse the bowl!
