Ingredients
  • Chipotle Cauliflower Tacos
  • 1 head cauliflower, cut into small florets
  • 3 canned chipotle peppers
  • 1 tbsp adobo sauce from can
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 6 corn tortillas
  • Chipotle Crema
  • 3 tbsp tahini
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce

  • ¼ cup lime juice
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp cumin

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and place the cauliflower florets on the baking sheet.
  2. Take the chipotle peppers and crush them in your hand then rub them over the cauliflower florets. Next pour the adobo sauce and the olive oil over the florets and continue tossing and rubbing the sauce and peppers until all the florets are coated. You may need to add another tablespoon of adobo sauce depending on how big of a head of cauliflower you had.
  3. Place the cauliflower into the oven and bake for 20 minutes until the florets begin to caramelize.
  4. To make the Chipotle Crema, add all the ingredients to a small food processor and process on high for 2 minutes. It will form a creamy sauce.
