To make the cauliflower tacos, toss all of the ingredients with a healthy splash of olive oil (don’t skimp!) and place it all on a large baking pan. Make sure the pan isn’t crowded, or they won’t get nice and crispy!
Bake the cauliflower for 25 minutes, or until brown and crispy.
To make the sauce, combine all of the ingredients in a blender, and blend until smooth. Then pour the mixture into a sauce pan. Bring it to a boil, and then reduce the heat and let it simmer on low for 20 minutes.
To assemble, first heat the tortillas on the stove. Fill them with cauliflower, top with the romesco sauce, cheese, cilantro, and any other toppings of your choice, and voila!
