Ingredients
Steps
- 1
Toss cauliflower florets with olive oil and all spices.
- 2
Air fry at 400°F for 12-14 minutes, shaking every 4 minutes, until charred and tender.
- 3
Warm tortillas in the air fryer for 30 seconds.
- 4
Fill tortillas with spiced cauliflower, chipotle crema, pickled onions, cilantro, avocado, and cotija.
- 5
Squeeze lime over the top and serve.
Tip: Cut florets small for more charred edges — that's where the flavor lives. The chipotle crema adds smoky heat that elevates the whole taco. Don't skip the pickled red onions; their acidity balances the richness. These convert meat lovers.
