Name: Roast, spiced cauliflower tacos, chipotle hummus and mango salsa
Prep time: 30 min
Cook time: 30 min
Ingredients: 400g grams tin of chickpeas ((240g drained weight)); 400 grams cauliflower (broken into small florets); 1 small onion (thinly sliced); 2 tbsp olive oil; 1 tsp ground cumin; 1 tsp ground coriander; 1 tsp ground cinnamon; 1 tsp garlic granules; 1/2 tsp sea salt; 1/4 tsp black pepper; 125 grams fresh spinach leaves (shredded); 400 grams tin of chickpeas (240g drained weight ); 2 tbsp lemon juice; 1 clove garlic (crushed); 1 tbsp tahini; 2 tbsp water; 2 tbsp olive oil; 1/2 tsp smoked paprika; 1/4 tsp ground cumin; 1 large mango (diced small); 1 pinch chilli flakes; 2 spring onions (finely chopped); 1/2 lime (the juice of ); 2 tbsp fresh coriander (chopped); 12 mini flour tortillas; 2-3 sprigs of coriander ((optional))

These Tacos are not only delicious, fun to assemble and nutritional powerhouses, but they also lend themselves to the substitution of ingredients to reduce food waste.

This recipe works beautifully using a mango chutney for example instead of the salsa. You could equally substitute the mango for a couple of tomatoes and create a delicious tomato salsa. Spring onions can be substituted for some leftover red onion; lemon instead of lime etc.

If you have a pot of shop-bought hummus - no problem! Just add some smoked paprika or chipotle paste. Or just leave it as it is. It's still going to do the job! You get the idea. And practically any combination of vegetables will roast to delicious perfection in the oven.

Enjoy!
