Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking sheet
1 cup very thinly sliced red cabbage
1 cup very thinly sliced green cabbage
2 limes, plus lime wedges, for serving
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon pureed chipotle in adobo
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 large head cauliflower, cut into florets
1 ripe avocado
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped, plus whole leaves, for garnish
8 corn tortillas
3 radishes, thinly sliced
Hot sauce, for topping, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Toss together the red and green cabbage with the juice of 1 lime. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the olive oil, chipotle puree, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of salt and a pinch of pepper. Toss the cauliflower florets in the spice mixture until well coated. Place in a singe layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast until well browned, 20 to 25 minutes. While the cauliflower roasts, make the avocado crema.
  • Place the avocado, chopped cilantro and the juice of the remaining lime in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper and use a fork to mash until the mixture is smooth.
  • Heat the tortillas by placing in a dry pan over medium heat for a few seconds, until soft and pliable. Place a few cauliflower florets in each tortilla. Drizzle with the avocado crema and top with the cilantro leaves, cabbage and radishes. Add hot sauce, if desired.
  • Put on a platter and garnish with lime wedges and cilantro leaves.
