# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Irresistible Texture: The cauliflower is double-baked to achieve a crispy exterior that holds up beautifully against the sauce.
  • Balanced Heat: The spicy buffalo kick is perfectly offset by the creamy, herb-infused ranch slaw.
  • Wholesome Ingredients: A nutrient-dense meal featuring fresh vegetables, healthy fats from avocado, and plant-based protein.
02 -
  • Warm the Tortillas: Heating the tortillas for a few seconds makes them much more pliable and easier to roll without tearing.
  • Fresh Herbs: Using fresh dill and parsley in the ranch slaw makes a significant difference in the vibrancy of the flavor.
  • Adjust Spice: Control the heat level by choosing your favorite mild or extra-hot vegan buffalo sauce.
