Instructions

  1. Prepare the cauliflower
    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, toss cauliflower florets with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer.
  2. Roast the cauliflower
    Roast cauliflower for 20-25 minutes until edges are crispy and golden brown, tossing halfway through cooking time to ensure even browning.
  3. Make the buffalo sauce
    While cauliflower is roasting, whisk together buffalo hot sauce, honey or maple syrup, and melted butter in a medium bowl until well combined.
  4. Coat the cauliflower
    When cauliflower is done roasting, transfer it to a large bowl and pour the buffalo sauce over it. Gently toss until all pieces are evenly coated. Return to the baking sheet and roast for an additional 5 minutes.
  5. Prepare avocado lime sauce
    In a food processor or blender, combine avocados, lime juice, 2 tablespoons cilantro, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. If too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of water to reach desired consistency.
  6. Warm the tortillas
    Heat tortillas according to package directions or warm directly over a gas flame for 10-15 seconds per side until lightly charred but still soft.
  7. Assemble the tacos
    Spread a layer of avocado lime sauce on each tortilla. Top with buffalo cauliflower, sliced red cabbage, red onion, and a sprinkle of blue cheese if using.
  8. Garnish and serve
    Garnish tacos with additional fresh cilantro and lime wedges. Serve immediately while cauliflower is still hot and crispy.
