Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until smooth.
  2. Step 2: Dip 3 cups cauliflower florets into the batter, shaking off excess, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  3. Step 3: Bake for 20 minutes until edges are crispy. Remove from oven and toss the cauliflower with 1/3 cup buffalo hot sauce. Return to oven and bake an additional 10 minutes.
  4. Step 4: Meanwhile, combine 1 cup shredded green cabbage, 1/2 cup shredded red cabbage, 1/4 cup chopped celery, 1/4 cup vegan blue cheese dressing, and 1 teaspoon lemon juice in a bowl. Toss to coat evenly.
  5. Step 5: Warm 2 large spinach tortillas briefly. Divide the buffalo cauliflower evenly between the tortillas, then top with the blue cheese slaw.
  6. Step 6: Roll up each wrap tightly, folding in the edges to prevent filling from escaping, and serve immediately.
