Buffalo Cauliflower Tacos

Blog· Recipes

9 Apr

It’s no surprise that I love tacos and buffalo cauliflower. So, guess what I did? I married the two! Here’s an easy vegetarian recipe for buffalo cauliflower tacos. These babies can easily be made vegan by omitting the crema. Enjoy!

Keyword buffalo cauliflower tacos, Tacos, vegan, vegetarian

Chop up your favorite toppings. I went with thinly sliced (julienne) carrots, diced onion, fresh cilantro, diced pineapple, and grated some mild Cheddar.

If you prefer flour tortillas, you don’t need to toast these in a pan, but they’ll taste better! Or do it the way I did growing up: just heat up directly on the burner of a gas stove. But be careful not to burn yourself (or catch the tortilla on fire) when dealing with an open flame.

I whipped up a quick sauce to go with the tacos. Top tacos with the jalapeno cilantro crema for a cool compliment to the spicy tacos. Also great for dipping chips!

I love these tacos because most of the work is chopping and you only dirty one sheet pan. Leave me a comment, post your pics on Instagram, tag @thebitetonight, and let me know how they turned out!

Spicy Salmon Bowl. A quick, light, healthy meal id Spicy Salmon Bowl. A quick, light, healthy meal idea. Cooking cubed salmon in the air fryer is my new fav thing! Inspired by @feelgoodfoodie, I seasoned with paprika, garlic + onion powder and cooked for 8ish minutes at 400F. Serve over rice with cucumber, avocado, and spicy Mayo (sriracha + mayo, duh). So good!
