Ingredients
For the tacos:
- 1 cauliflower cut into florets, head
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 ¼ teaspoons smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon cumin ground
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
For the chipotle sauce:
- ½ cup Greek yogurt can use sour cream or mayonnaise, plain
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 teaspoons chipotle in adobo sauce
- ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
- kosher salt to taste
For serving:
- 8 corn tortilla warmed
- 15 oz pinto beans rinsed, drained, and warmed, or black beans
- red cabbage thinly sliced
- onion thinly sliced red onion or pickled red onions
- cilantro fresh
- avocado
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy clean up.
- Place the cauliflower florets in a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss well. Sprinkle the smoked paprika, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and salt over the cauliflower and stir until all of the cauliflower florets are well coated in the seasonings. Place the cauliflower on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 15 minutes and stir the cauliflower. Roast for an additional 15 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender and slightly crisp. Remove from the oven.
- While the cauliflower is roasting, make the chipotle sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the plain Greek yogurt, lime juice, chipotle in adobo sauce, smoked paprika, and salt. If the sauce isn’t spicy enough add more chipotle in adobo sauce and whisk again.
- To assemble the tacos, top a warm corn tortilla with roasted cauliflower, beans, cabbage, red onion, cilantro, and avocado. Drizzle with chipotle sauce and serve immediately.
