Vegan Cauliflower Tacos with Cashew Lime Crema

Make any day taco Tuesday with these delicious cauliflower tacos. This recipe also includes a homemade cashew lime crema sauce to drizzle on top!

These tacos pack a healthy punch with roasted cauliflower, crunchy cabbage, and creamy avocado.

CHEF TIP: toast the corn tortillas in a warm skillet before serving. They’ll soften to perfection! You can also put then on a baking sheet and place them in the oven for a few minutes before serving.
