Potato and Cauliflower Tacos
We make some version of tacos at least once a week in our house. Craig is the cook in the family, I know my strengths, lol. One of the only things we don’t have near us is good Mexican food. Somewhat hard to come by in Vermont, so we make it often because we all love it, including our toddler. I am mostly vegetarian but the great thing about this potato and cauliflower taco recipe is that you can add in chicken, tofu or beef.
This is a great weeknight meal and something you could prep ahead of time and then whip up pretty quickly. We used flour tortillas for this recipe but you can also have these with hard shell tacos. Serve up with your favorite margarita recipe or mocktail and enjoy! If you’re looking for more meal ideas check out this round up of cozy winter recipes.
