These Cauliflower Tacos, are made with roasted cauliflower and a batch of quick and easy mole rojo sauce.  I promise you won’t be sorry about this, and if you are lucky to have some left over you are going to find countless ways to use it.  The flavor of mole is deep, luscious, nutty and spicy with a hint of sweetness.  It has the power to transform simple foods into amazing dishes.

Roasted cauliflower and mole are very happy together!  The mole perfectly compliments the toasty cauliflower.  We add crunchy red cabbage, creamy avocado slices and fresh cilantro.  Keep it simple, or add pickled jalapeños, queso fresco cheese, radishes, and carrot ribbons…get creative!

  1. So glad I tucked that cauliflower in the shopping cart. We were getting low on provisions but are never ready to compromise on flavor. This a truly fresh and tasty flavor burst that leaves you wanting more. Truly authentic Mexican flavor with the sauce. Provecho!

  2. These tacos with mole sauce are a huge hit with my family (me, husband, son (13) and daughter (11)). We have it twice a month and everyone looks forward to it. I do make the mole sauce milder.
