Ingredients
- 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 small corn tortillas
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- Juice of 1 lime
- Fresh cilantro, for garnish
- Radishes, for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well coated. Spread the cauliflower in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for about 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through.
While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the avocado lime crema by blending the avocado, Greek yogurt, lime juice, and a pinch of salt in a food processor until smooth. Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet or directly on the stovetop. Once the cauliflower is ready, assemble your tacos by placing a generous amount of roasted cauliflower in each tortilla, drizzling with avocado lime crema, and garnishing with fresh cilantro and radishes. Serve immediately and enjoy!
