Scrambling for an easy and fan-favorite dinner? Look no further than these cauliflower tacos! This low-effort meal dresses up nutritious cauliflower and protein-packed chickpeas as flavorful street tacos. The deliciousness doesn’t stop there. We’re talking pickled red cabbage and avocado crema. Oh, and it’s all done in under 45 minutes. Taco night: engage.
Here’s what you’ll need
Quick Slaw: A quick pickled red cabbage adds crunch to these tacos and helps to balance out the spice. You could also use pickled onions or even pickled jalapeños here! Avocado Crema: This quick version of our avocado crema is a blend of avocado, garlic, and seasonings. You can also use vegan queso in place of or in addition to the avocado sauce. Vegetarian Taco Filling: We’re using a combination of spiced cauliflower and chickpeas, roasted until crispy! Cauliflower not your thing? Try out vegan tempeh taco filling!
It’s time to make the tacos
The key to the perfect vegetarian tacos is to keep the flavor high! Being completely plant-based does not mean your tacos have to fall behind in flavor.
more taco topping ideas
The sky’s the limit when it comes to taco pairings! I like to serve dishes that can be served both on or next to the tacos.
Sliced portabello mushrooms can be cooked to mimic taco meat. Shredded oyster mushrooms will resemble pulled pork. Sweet potatoes, bell peppers, and zucchini can all be sauteed or baked into a yummy taco filling.
Mexican Street Corn Salad: The corn adds a sweet note that compliments the tangy cabbage slaw. Nopales (Cactus Paddles!): These little nuggets of deliciousness are cubbed cactus paddles. With a crunch like bell peppers, they add a nice bite to tacos. Pico De Gallo: What street tacos aren’t good with pico de gallo??
