Ingredients

Cauliflower
1 large head cauliflower, cut into small florets
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Salt and pepper
Assembly
8 corn tortillas
1/4 cup sour cream mixed with 1 tbsp chipotle in adobo
Pickled red onions
Fresh cilantro
Sliced avocado
Lime wedges
Cotija cheese

Equipment

  • Air Fryer Parchment Liners

Steps

  1. 1

    Toss cauliflower florets with olive oil and all spices.

  2. 2

    Air fry at 400°F for 12-14 minutes, shaking every 4 minutes, until charred and tender.

  3. 3

    Warm tortillas in the air fryer for 30 seconds.

  4. 4

    Fill tortillas with spiced cauliflower, chipotle crema, pickled onions, cilantro, avocado, and cotija.

  5. 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.
