I know it isn’t Tuesday….but can you blame me?
Taco Tuesday should be everyday. Tacos have always been a favorite of mine but I always felt “heavy” after chowing down. Unlike meat, cauliflower is light, healthy and fresh, the perfect addition to vegan tacos. I know what you are thinking…Cauliflower? Really? But trust me, these little florets are seasoned to perfection and are the perfect addition to any taco meal.
