Roasted Cauliflower Tacos with Avocado Crema

Posted by Manjeri Skincare Team on

Benefits:
Cauliflower is rich in skin-clearing sulfur compounds and vitamin C for collagen support and brightening. Olive oil and spices help reduce inflammation and promote circulation. Paired with avocado crema, this dish delivers essential fatty acids and antioxidants that hydrate and repair the skin from within.

Skin Concern: Inflammation, breakouts, dullness

Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cook Time: 25 minutes | Serves: 2

Ingredients:

For the Roasted Cauliflower:

  • 1 small head cauliflower, cut into florets

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/4 tsp turmeric (optional)

  • Sea salt and pepper to taste

For the Tacos:

  • 4 small corn or almond flour tortillas

  • 1/2 cup shredded red cabbage

  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro

  • 1/4 cup diced red onion

  • Juice of 1/2 lime

For the Avocado Crema:

  • 1 ripe avocado

  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt

  • Juice of 1/2 lime

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • Sea salt to taste

Instructions:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss cauliflower with olive oil, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, turmeric, salt, and pepper.
  • Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy on the edges.
  • Blend all avocado crema ingredients until smooth. Add a splash of water to thin, if needed.
  • Warm tortillas and layer with red cabbage, roasted cauliflower, onion, and cilantro.
  • Drizzle generously with avocado crema and a squeeze of lime.

Shopping Tips:

  • Cauliflower: Choose firm heads with tight florets and no browning.

  • Tortillas: Opt for sprouted corn or grain-free options for extra fiber and skin benefits.

  • Yogurt: Use probiotic-rich, unsweetened yogurt to support gut health and glowing skin.

Cooking Tips:

  • For extra crunch, roast cauliflower an extra 5 minutes or broil for 1–2 minutes at the end.

  • Add pumpkin seeds for zinc or pomegranate seeds for a juicy burst of vitamin C.

  • Store leftover crema in an airtight jar with plastic wrap pressed on top to avoid browning.

These vibrant tacos are a skin-loving, anti-inflammatory treat—perfect for a nourishing dinner that brings the glow from within.
