  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp each sea salt, chipotle chile powder, garlic powder and evaporated cane juice
  • 1/4 tsp each chile powder, ground cumin and paprika

  • 2 tbsp. fresh lime juice
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove, roughly chopped

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

  2. Prepare tacos: Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add cauliflower and cook until just tender, 3-4 minutes. Drain well; transfer to a clean kitchen towel and pat dry. Set aside.

  3. In a large bowl, stir together oil, salt, chipotle chile powder, garlic powder, cane juice, chile powder, cumin, paprika and black pepper. Add cauliflower and toss gently to coat. Arrange in a single layer on prepared sheet. Bake, turning once, until golden, 20-30 minutes.

  4. Meanwhile, prepare sauce: In a blender or food processor, blend all ingredients until smooth.

  5. Divide cauliflower among tortillas. Add desired toppings and drizzle with sauce, dividing evenly.
