⁠
Ingredients:⁠
1 small cauliflower⁠
2 tbsp Chipotle Honey⁠
2 tsp Smoky Chipotle Fajita and Taco Mix⁠
2 tbsp olive oil⁠
1 tbsp tamari sauce⁠
1 lemon (juice)⁠
2 garlic cloves, (minced)⁠
Salt and freshly ground black pepper⁠
500 grams of grated gruyere or any good melting cheese⁠
1 pack of Gran Luchito Lightly Salted Tortilla Chips⁠
1 pack of Gran Luchito Street Tacos⁠
⁠
Directions:⁠
Preheat oven to 200 C, 392 F.⁠
1. Begin by making the chipotle coating for the cauliflower. In a medium size bowl add the Chipotle Honey, Smoky Chipotle Fajita and Taco Mix, olive oil, tamari sauce, lemon juice and garlic cloves, season with a pinch of salt and black pepper, combine the mixture with a spoon and reserve.⁠
2. Cut your cauliflower florets in bite size pieces and place them in the bowl with the chipotle honey mixture, coat your florets well and evenly, season with a pinch of salt.⁠
Place your cauliflower over a baking tray and roast for 25-30 minutes approximately. Until they get those delicious roasted edges!⁠
3. While your cauliflower is cooking, place your cheese over a cast iron skillet or a small baking dish. Place it in the oven about 10 minutes before your cauliflower will be ready, so then both can be nice and warm to serve at the same time.⁠
4. Remove the cauliflower and bubbling cheese skillet from the oven, place your chipotle cauliflower florets on top of the cheese. ⁠
5. Serve hot with Gran Luchito Tortilla Chips on the side or warm Soft Wheat Street Tacos ready to scoop up that cheesy deliciousness and why not try one of our salsas on top Chipotle or Tomatillo, take your pick.⁠
