Instructions
Tacos
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with a silicone baking sheet or parchment paper, NOT foil.
Remove florets from the cauliflower (aka don't use the stem).
Chop the cauliflower into smaller pieces to resemble the size of wings.
In a separate bowl, whisk all the batter ingredients together EXCEPT the bread crumbs. Place the bread crumbs in a bowl. Line it up beside the batter bowl.
Toss the cauliflower in the mixture one at a time, shaking off excess batter. Then, dip the cauliflower into the breadcrumbs to coat, then place onto the baking sheet. Repeat until all of the wings are coated.
Bake for 22 minutes.
Remove from oven and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Kale Cabbage Slaw
Mix all the ingredients for the slaw together while cauliflower is baking. Let sit on the counter or in fridge if not using immediately while everything else is being made so all the flavours can marry together.
Lime Crema
While cauliflower is baking, in a small food processor or with an immersion blender, blend all the ingredients together. Add a tablespoon or water to thin out the lime crema for drizzling if you so desire. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place in a squeeze bottle and in the fridge until ready, or in a small bowl to spoon over tacos.
To Assemble Tacos
Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat (if possible, brush with a pastry brush).
Place a taco shell in the heat until golden brown spots appear and they are slightly puffy for a few seconds, then flip and cook the same. Set on a plate to assemble.
Layer with slaw, crispy cauliflower, avocados, jalapeños and cilantro over the soft taco shells.
Drizzle the taco shells with the chipotle crema.
Serve with limes. Enjoy!

Notes
How to store:The components for the tacos will last up to 4 days in the refrigerator, stored separately. Reheat the cauliflower in a 350ºF oven until it’s warmed through, or warm it in the microwave or a skillet set over medium heat.
