Ingredients

  • cauliflower florets
  • olive oil
  • ground cumin
  • paprika
  • chili powder
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • fresh cilantro
  • lime juice
  • tortillas

Instructions

  • Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This step is essential for getting that lovely roasted finish on the cauliflower.
  • In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. This will ensure that every piece is bursting with flavor.
  • Spread the cauliflower on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast until tender and golden brown. This should take about 20-25 minutes, during which the kitchen will fill with delicious aromas.
  • While the cauliflower is roasting, whisk together the sour cream or Greek yogurt, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and a little olive oil in a small bowl until smooth. This creamy topping will elevate your tacos.
  • Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or briefly in the microwave to make them pliable and ready for filling.
  • Once the cauliflower is roasted, assemble your tacos by placing a portion of it into each tortilla and drizzling with the cilantro lime crema. Enjoy every bite!
