Directions

Prep 15 minCook 30 min
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 450°F.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Dip the cauliflower pieces into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake on the upper rack for 15-20 minutes until lightly crisped and browned.

  3. 3

    Gently toss the baked cauliflower in a bowl with the hot sauce. Return to the baking sheet and bake for another 5-10 minutes.

  4. 4

    In a food processor or blender, blend the avocados, garlic, sour cream, and water until smooth to make the avocado sauce.

  5. 5

    Toss the shredded cabbage with some of the avocado crema until creamy.

  6. 6

    Assemble the tacos by filling each tortilla with the slaw, cauliflower, a drizzle of avocado sauce, and a sprinkle of cilantro.
