Roasted Cauliflower Tacos
Description
These Roasted Cauliflower Tacos combine small cauliflower florets and thinly sliced red cabbage that are tossed in olive oil and seasoned with cumin, ground coriander, and salt. Roasting brings out the natural sweetness of the cauliflower while softening the cabbage and adding a slight caramelized crispness. The roasting process takes about 45 minutes, with stirring to ensure even cooking and browning.
The cooked vegetables are then portioned onto warm corn tortillas and topped with a smooth avocado sauce that adds creaminess and coolness. Optional garnishes such as thinly sliced radishes, serrano peppers, avocado slices, and fresh cilantro add contrasting crunch, heat, and herbaceous notes. Together, these elements create a balanced taco ideal for a fresh and hearty vegetarian meal.
Ingredients
- 1 cauliflower outer leaves and core discarded, cut into small florets, small
- 1 pound red cabbage thinly sliced (about 1/2 small red cabbage or 6 cups sliced)
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin ground
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
For Serving
- 1 recipe avocado sauce
- 12 corn tortillas warmed
- radish optional, thinly sliced
- Serrano peppers optional, sliced
- avocado optional, slices
- cilantro optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Place the cauliflower and cabbage on a large sheet pan. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with the cumin, coriander, and salt. Use your hands to mix everything together and spread it out into an even layer. Roast, stirring every 15 minutes, until the vegetables are softened and browned in spots, about 45 minutes. (I roasted my cabbage and cauliflower on two separate sheet pans. I cooked the cauliflower for 25 minutes and the cabbage for 10 minutes. Both ways work!)
- Evenly divide the Avocado Sauce and roasted vegetables among the tortillas. Serve immediately with the radishes, serranos, avocado slices, and cilantro, if using.
