Recipe:
Ingredients:
1 package of pre-cut broccoli and cauliflower florets
1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt (or vegan yogurt alternative)
1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
1 tsp adobo sauce (from the chipotle can)
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tsp maple syrup
Juice of 1 lime
1 avocado
2 tbsp cottage cheese (optional, for added protein)
1 tbsp dried cilantro (or fresh if available)
Corn or flour tortillas
Optional toppings: fresh cilantro, additional lime wedges
Instructions:
Prepare the Vegetables:

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Break the broccoli and cauliflower into bite-sized pieces if they aren’t already. Chop off broccoli stems if desired for quicker cooking.
Make the Yogurt Sauce:

In a bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, salt, pepper, maple syrup, and lime juice. Blend until smooth. Add a bit of water if the mixture is too thick.
Coat the Vegetables:

In a large bowl, toss the broccoli and cauliflower florets with the yogurt sauce until evenly coated.
Spread the coated vegetables on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast the Vegetables:

Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
Make the Avocado Crema:

In a blender or food processor, combine the avocado, cottage cheese (if using), lime juice, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth, adding a little water if necessary to achieve a creamy consistency.
Assemble the Tacos:

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave.
Spread a layer of avocado crema on each tortilla.
Top with the roasted cauliflower and broccoli.
Add any additional toppings you like, such as fresh cilantro or extra lime juice.
Serve:

Enjoy your tacos immediately while they’re warm and fresh.
