Cauliflower Tacos
February 2, 2012
A head of cauliflower packed into my food processor. Ideally this probably wouldn't be done in such a large batch but I was testing the limits of my new food processor.
I seared the cauliflower pebbles in batches to get some brown on them.
Onions, habaneros, and garlic in the pan.
Followed by spices, tomatoes, and then finally the cauliflower.
Tasty stuff!
These tacos tasted great and were a nice twist on your normal American style ground beef taco.
The cauliflower added an interesting flavor and texture,
