Ingredients
1 medium head cauliflower, cut into small florets
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 cup buffalo sauce
4 soft tortillas
1 ripe avocado or 1/3 cup vegan ranch dressing
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Optional: sliced cucumber, shredded lettuce, pickled onions, or slaw
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, toss cauliflower florets with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Spread cauliflower on baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
4. Remove from oven and toss roasted cauliflower with buffalo sauce in a clean bowl until well-coated.
5. Warm tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 15–30 seconds on each side.
6. Spread avocado or ranch dressing down the center of each tortilla.
7. Add buffalo cauliflower mixture, then top with cilantro and optional toppings.
8. Fold in the sides and roll up tightly. Slice in half and serve immediately.
Notes
Always roast the cauliflower without sauce first to maintain crispiness.
Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet — spread the florets out for even roasting.
Warm tortillas before assembling for easier folding and a better texture.
