Simple Buffalo Cauliflower Tacos
(so Easy Anyone can Make Them!)

Want to know the most requested recipe I’ve ever had? You’re seeing it.

Every time I make these tacos and put them on Instagram, SO many of you guys reach out and ask for the recipe. Honestly, I’m not even surprised – buffalo cauliflower wings are something everyone loves. Carnivores, your veggie friends, people who don’t care about food at all – everyone comes together for this recipe. After time and time again of bringing buffalo cauliflower to parties and hearing “I can’t believe it’s so good” makes the recipe feel pretty full proof. I’m telling you, even my friends/family who swear against liking vegetables are super into these. They’re special.

For this recipe, I decided to take the buffalo cauliflower a step further and add it into one of my favorite foods: tacos. If you’re like me and love Mexican food and flavors, this will be RIGHT up your alley. It’s a little spicy, a little cool, very fresh, and as always, pretty dang healthy. We *love* a meal that’s so multi-faceted (insert applause here).

As promised, in these buffalo cauliflower tacos, I’m using some of favorite Mexican flavors. While I love buffalo sauce, sometimes it can be a little overwhelming alone. A tip for those of you guys who don’t love spicy stuff: pair it with something cooling! Whenever I eat a spicy food, I make sure to have a cooling element on hand like an avocado, a dipping sauce, a lemon, etc. It really helps you to enjoy the meal in a whole different way! No burning mouths here, just delicious flavor.

The cooling elements I added to the tacos with the buffalo cauliflower were chopped lettuce, cilantro, green onions, Wholly Guacamole, and a vegan ranch. All of these flavors together are TOO GOOD. As someone who’s obsessed with avocados and guacamole but has a hard time finding ripe ones in the store (or they’re too ripe, it’s so frustrating!), I often opt for Wholly Guacamole because they take the guesswork out of enjoying delicious avocados and guacamole. We all know how annoying it can be to find a perfectly ripe avocado when you need it, so I love that with Wholly Guacamole, there’s no need to worry about under or over ripe avocados since they always use avocados at the peak of their ripeness.

I love using this guac on veggies, with chips, or in other recipes to give a fresh and cool flavor. You guys also know I’m picky about the products I purchase since I want them to healthy, so I love that Wholly Guacamole is made with hand-scooped Hass avocados, real ingredients, and no preservatives. Make sure to pick some up next time you’re at the store (find out where to buy it: here). Whether you plan to pair it with chips or use it to boost flavor in recipes, you can remove the guesswork by stocking up on ready-to-serve WHOLLY® guacamole. You’ll thank me later! Also, incase you missed it, check out their new & so relatable campaign “ALL REAL. NO DRAMA.†here.

Aside from that, I always like to mention that all of the ingredients in the recipe are so easy to find! I picked them up at my local grocery store and everything in the recipe together was under $10. If you try this recipe, let me know how you liked it!

Simple Buffalo Cauliflower Tacos (so Easy Anyone can Make Them!)

Serves: 4

Buffalo Cauliflower base:

• 3/4 cup of flour
• 1 cup of water
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• salt + pepper
• 1 cup of hot sauce

Other taco ingredients:

• whole wheat tortillas
• Wholly Guacamole (my favorite addition to these tacos – so light & yummy!)
• vegan crema (1/2 cup vegan mayo + 1/4th cup almond milk)
• shredded iceberg lettuce
• cilantro

1. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
2. Chop up the head of cauliflower into florets and put them into a large bowl. They should be bite-sized.
3. Next, add the flour, water, and seasonings to a cup, and mix well.
4. Pour the mixture on to your cauliflower, and mix everything together. You want the cauliflower to be covered in the flour mixture.
5. Place the covered cauliflower on to a nonstick baking sheet, and roast in the oven for 20 minutes.
6. While the cauliflower is cooking, mix the ingredients together for the ranch. If it looks too thick, add more milk.
7. Once the 20 minutes is up, throw the cauliflower back into a bowl, and add 1 cup of hot sauce. Mix everything around until the wings are covered.
8. Place the wings back into the oven for an additional 15 minutes to roast. When the 15 minutes have passed, take the cauliflower out of the oven and let cool.
9. Now, assemble the tacos. Grab your lettuce, and add it to the taco.
10. Then the buffalo cauliflower.
11. Lastly, add on the vegan crema (if using), Wholly Guacamole, and cilantro.
12. Serve & enjoy!
