Description

Quick, vibrant, and healthy cauliflower tacos topped with zesty cilantro lime crema.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 head of cauliflower, chopped into small florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Corn or flour tortillas for serving
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
  • 1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Handful of fresh cilantro
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
  2. Toss the chopped cauliflower florets with olive oil, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well coated.
  3. Spread the cauliflower on the prepared baking sheet and roast for about 20-25 minutes, or until golden and tender.
  4. Prepare the zesty cilantro lime crema by combining sour cream (or Greek yogurt), lime juice, cilantro, and salt in a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy!
  5. Warm your tortillas in a pan or microwave, then layer the roasted cauliflower and drizzle the crema on top. Garnish with fresh cilantro.

Notes

Add pickled onions for extra zing. If crema is thick, thin with water or more lime juice.
