Ingredients
  

1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

8 small corn tortillas

1 cup red cabbage, finely shredded

1 ripe avocado, diced

1/2 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped

1 lime, cut into wedges

1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)

1/4 cup tahini or your favorite creamy dressing (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting.

    Prepare the Cauliflower: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower florets with the olive oil, smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss until the florets are completely coated in the seasoning mix.

      Roast the Cauliflower: Spread the seasoned cauliflower evenly on a baking sheet. Place it in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the florets are golden brown and tender.

        Warm the Tortillas: While the cauliflower roasts, warm the corn tortillas. You can either heat them in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side or wrap them in aluminum foil and place them in the oven for the last 5 minutes of the cauliflower's roasting time.

          Assemble the Tacos: Once the cauliflower is perfectly roasted, remove it from the oven. To assemble the tacos, take a tortilla and fill it generously with roasted cauliflower. Top it with a handful of shredded red cabbage, diced avocado, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro for a fresh finish.

            Garnish and Serve: If you wish, drizzle tahini or your favorite dressing over the assembled tacos for added creaminess. Sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese for an extra layer of flavor. Serve the tacos alongside lime wedges for squeezing over the top.

              Enjoy: Dive into your colorful and delicious golden roasted cauliflower tacos for a meal that's as satisfying as it is vibrant!
