Adobo Roasted Cauliflower Breakfast Tacos

Tacos packed with smoky cumin-roasted cauliflower, corn, and sweet onions, plus your favorite style eggs (scrambled?! over easy??) topped with a creamy roasted adobo sauce. These are great for any meal of the day. 

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 45 minutes
Servings 10 tacos

Ingredients

  • 10 corn tortillas
  • 1 cup refried beans (optional)
  • 10 eggs
  • 2 avocados (sliced, mashed with salt, or made into guacamole!)

Roasted Vegetables

  • 1 large purple onion, quartered then thinly sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh summer corn about 3 ears
  • 1 medium cauliflower, chopped into small pieces the size of an olive
  • 3 tbsp avocado oil (or olive oil)
  • 1/2 tbsp coriander
  • 1 tbsp cumin
  • 1/2 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp ground pepper
  • 2 tsp minced garlic

Creamy Adobo Sauce

  • 1/2 cup plain whole milk yogurt
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil mayo
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 whole chipotle pepper + 1 tbsp adobo sauce (from the canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce)

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 450 degrees and grease a rimmed baking sheet. (For super easy clean up line the baking sheet with foil first.) Prep all veggies to roast, then toss with oil and spices. Pour veggies onto baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 25-30 minutes. 

  2. While veggies are roasting, prepare adobo sauce. Combine all ingredients in a blender and process until smooth. Store sauce in the fridge so it stays thick.

  3. Heat up refried beans. Cook one egg per taco according to your preferred method. Scrambled is easiest for a crowd, but over easy is delicious too!

  4. To assemble: Toast tortillas directly over a low flame on your gas stove until the edges are slightly browned. Then add a dollop of refried beans, big scoop of roasted veggies, and one egg. Garnish with a generous amount of creamy adobo sauce and some avocado. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Sometimes the avocado slices don't stay put in the taco. To solve this, you can mash them with a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lime. So tasty!

Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce are sold in a can and should be available in the international section of your grocery store (or see my link above).
