Cauliflower Tortillas

Cauliflower Tortillas can be munched on by themselves, made into quesadillas, or used as a taco shell.

Ingredients:

  • ¾ Head Cauliflower
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • ¼ cup Cilantro chopped
  • 2 tbsp Lime Juice
  • ½ tsp Salt

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Trim the cauliflower, cut it into small, uniform pieces, and pulse in a food processor in batches until you get a couscous-like consistency. The finely riced cauliflower should make about 2 cups packed.
  3. Place the cauliflower in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 2 minutes, then stir and microwave again for another 2 minutes. Place the cauliflower in a fine cheesecloth or thin dishtowel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible, being careful not to burn yourself. (Dishwashing gloves are suggested as it is very hot.)
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs. Add in cauliflower, cilantro, lime, salt and pepper. Mix until well combined. Use your hands to shape 6 small “tortillas” on the parchment paper.
  5. Bake for 10 minutes, carefully flip each tortilla, and return to the oven for an additional 5 to 7 minutes, or until completely set. Place tortillas on a wire rack to cool slightly.
  6. Heat a medium-sized skillet on medium. Place a baked tortilla in the pan, pressing down slightly, and brown for 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
