Taco Components

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cauliflower

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the cauliflower into small florets and toss with olive oil and taco seasoning. Spread evenly on a baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Roast the Cauliflower

    Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden and tender, stirring halfway through.

  3. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

    While the cauliflower is roasting, warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or until pliable.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Pico de Gallo

    In a bowl, combine diced tomatoes, chopped onions, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix well.

  5. 5

    Make the Guacamole

    In a separate bowl, mash the ripe avocados and mix with lime juice, salt, diced tomatoes, and chopped onions to taste.

  6. 6

    Cook the Spanish Rice

    In a saucepan, cook rice according to package instructions. Add diced tomatoes, onion, garlic, and season with cumin and salt while cooking.

  7. 7

    Assemble the Tacos

    Place a layer of roasted cauliflower on a tortilla, add a scoop of Spanish rice, top with pico de gallo and guacamole, and then place another tortilla on top.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Cut the double-layered taco in half and serve immediately with extra guacamole and pico de gallo on the side.
