Ingredients

  • 6 taco-sized corn tortillas
  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves 30 g, roughly chopped
  • 1 avocado peeled & sliced
  • 1.5 cups cooked chickpeas 240 g, drained
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ¼-½ teaspoon chili powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • Cauliflower Buffalo Bites
  • Fresh Salsa to taste
  • Vegan Ranch to taste
  • Fresh cilantro leaves to garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 °F (200 °C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Prepare the cauliflower buffalo bites (instructions in the recipe above) and bake them for 30 minutes on your first baking sheet.
  • Drain the chickpeas and put them in a medium-sized bowl with cumin, chili and salt. Toss to coat with the spices, then arrange the chickpeas in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 20 minutes alongside the cauliflower.
  • Once everything is slightly brown and crispy, remove the sheets from the oven.
  • In the meantime, make the salsa and ranch (recipes above).
  • Once all components are ready, assemble your tacos! Load each corn tortilla with some fresh spinach, cauliflower bites, roasted chickpeas and avocado. Add salsa and drizzle generously with ranch dressing.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately!

Notes

  • You can use any leafy greens of your choice instead of spinach for these tacos.
  • Instead of the corn tortillas, you can also use soft wheat-based tortillas!
  • Other delicious spices you can add to the chickpeas include smoked paprika, cayenne, onion powder and garlic powder.
