Spicy Cauliflower Tacos with Pineapple Salsa

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that’s perfect for a fun and flavorful weeknight dinner: Spicy Cauliflower Tacos with Pineapple Salsa. This dish is a delicious twist on traditional tacos, featuring a unique combination of flavors and textures that will undoubtedly impress your taste buds.

To start, gather the following ingredients:

  • 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 2 tablespoons of taco seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 1 cup of diced pineapple
  • 1/2 cup of diced red onion
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and diced
  • 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt and pepper to taste

You will also need the following kitchen tools:

  • baking sheet
  • mixing bowl
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • skillet

Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a mixing bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with taco seasoning and olive oil until evenly coated. Spread the cauliflower out on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly crispy.

While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the pineapple salsa by combining the diced pineapple, red onion, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.

In a skillet over medium heat, warm the corn tortillas for about 1 minute on each side until they are soft and pliable. Once the cauliflower is done roasting, fill each tortilla with a generous scoop of the spicy cauliflower and top with the pineapple salsa.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1000 grams, and this recipe makes 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 250 grams and has an estimated calorie count of 300 calories.

One unique tip for this recipe is to squeeze some extra lime juice over the tacos just before serving. The acidity of the lime brightens up the flavors and adds a refreshing kick to the dish.

I hope you give these Spicy Cauliflower Tacos with Pineapple Salsa a try soon! Feel free to customize them with your favorite toppings or add some avocado for extra creaminess. Enjoy!
