Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Prepare the Cauliflower: Place cauliflower florets in a microwave-safe bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of water. Microwave on high for approximately 2 minutes, or until the cauliflower reaches your desired tenderness. (Estimated time: 2 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

Sauté the Bean Mixture: Heat 1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add the rinsed black beans, corn, and chopped onion. Cook and stir for about 3 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and fragrant. (Estimated time: 3 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

Infuse with Spices: Incorporate the onion powder, garlic powder, Cajun seasoning, paprika, and ground cumin into the bean mixture. Stir well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed and the flavors meld together. (Estimated time: 1 minute)

04

Step
1 mins

Create the Taco Base: Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the taco sauce, ground flaxseed meal, nutritional yeast, and diced tomato. This mixture forms the flavorful and nutritious base of your taco. (Estimated time: 1 minute)

05

Step
2 mins

Assemble the Taco: Warm the whole wheat tortilla if desired. Fill the tortilla with the bean mixture, top with the cooked cauliflower, and finish with a generous amount of shredded dark leafy greens. Serve immediately and enjoy the explosion of flavors! (Estimated time: 2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lime juice or a dollop of guacamole.
Feel free to experiment with different types of beans or vegetables to customize your taco to your liking.
To add a touch of heat, use a spicier taco sauce or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the bean mixture.
For a gluten-free option, use a corn tortilla instead of a whole wheat tortilla.
