If you’re like me, then you could eat tacos or Mexican dishes several times a week without growing tired of them. I just love the spicy flavors and the options are endless. Not to mention, I could live off of guacamole alone. Give me a bag of Siete chips and a bowl of limy, salty gaucamole and I’m a happy camper. Now, I know what you’re thinking…cauliflower in tacos? YES, TRUST ME! Jonah was my final taste-tester for this recipe and it passed with flying colors. He loved them!

The key is to roast the cauliflower with avocado or coconut oil, garlic powder, chili powder, paprika, and pink Himalayan salt to achieve a crispy, flavor-rich base for the tacos. Even meat-lovers will devour these! The spices take the cauliflower to a whole new level.

I know you’re going to love these tacos. They’re spicy, savory, flavorful, versatile, and positively delicious. This is a great, healthy week-night dinner that’s ready in 30 minutes. Perfect for those nights when you don’t have much time to throw dinner together, but still want something satisfying and nutritious.

My favorite grain-free tortillas are Siete. Holy moly. If you haven’t tried these, I suggest you run to the store now. I love the Cassava flour and Almond flour tortillas. They’re soft and light, making the inside of the taco the star of the show. If you want to serve these tacos with chips on the side (which would be a good idea), Siete has the BEST grain-free chips. The Lime flavor are out of this world!
