Everyone wants to eat lighter when it’s hot outside. So I’ve come up with a clever meat-free meal that’s a sophisticated all-veg take on fish tacos! Try something new on the BBQ and make these grilled cauliflower tacos with mango slaw & avocado crema! They’re perfect for a family picnic, an easy weeknight meal, or whenever a taco craving hits!

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, cauliflower is a great veggie to start getting familiar with in the kitchen. It makes a perfect substitute for so many dishes that traditionally have meat. You could roast it whole for Thanksgiving instead of a turkey, or make my well-loved cauliflower buffalo wings! Give this under-appreciated veg a try and it’ll rock your world.
