Curried Cauliflower Tacos - Vegan recipe hero image

I created these tacos one sunny afternoon when I was craving something bright and flavorful.

There’s something so comforting about the warmth of curry combined with the freshness of tacos.

I remember enjoying these with friends, laughing and sharing stories over a kitchen table filled with vibrant plant-based dishes.

It’s a reminder that food is more than just sustenance; it’s about connection and joy.

If you're looking for a fun twist on taco night, this recipe is for you!

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

I love using fresh spices for the best flavor, so don’t be shy with the curry powder! For those who might not be a fan of cauliflower, you could swap it out for roasted sweet potatoes or chickpeas. And if you're looking for a creamier sauce, adding a splash of plant-based almond milk to the avocado sauce can make it even smoother.

Tips & Notes

  • I always keep extra roasted cauliflower in the fridge; it makes a great salad topping too!
  • If you're meal prepping, you can roast the cauliflower ahead of time and assemble the tacos when you're ready to eat.

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes, I’ll add black beans for extra protein and texture.
  • You can also switch up the spices; garam masala or turmeric add a unique twist!

Storage & Freezing

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just reheat the cauliflower in the oven or a skillet before serving, and freshen up the tortillas in a warm pan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use frozen cauliflower?

Absolutely! Just be sure to thaw and drain it well before seasoning and roasting.

What can I use instead of corn tortillas?

You can use lettuce wraps for a low-carb option or whole grain tortillas for a heartier choice.
