1/4 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp ground oregano
Cilantro-Pepita Pesto
2 cups cilantro

2 Tbsp jalapeño chiles, chopped
2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
1/2 tsp salt

Tortillas
8 gluten-free white corn tortillas, heated as directed on package
Directions
- Heat oven to 425°F. Place cauliflower florets in large bowl. Drizzle with 2 Tbsp oil; sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt. Stir until evenly coated. Arrange on large cookie sheet. Bake 15 minutes; stir. Bake 15-20 minutes longer or until cauliflower is tender and browned.
- Meanwhile, mix crispy chick peas ingredients. Spread on 15 x 10 x 1” pan. Bake 15 minutes; stir. Bake 10-15 minutes longer or until chick peas are slightly browned and crispy.
- Meanwhile, in food processor, place all pesto ingredients except oil. Cover; process using quick on-and-off motions. With food processor running, slowly drizzle in 1/4 cup oil through feed tube, stopping halfway through to stir mixture with spatula. Remove pesto to small bowl.
- Spoon about 1 Tbsp pesto on each tortilla; top with about 1/2 cup roasted cauliflower and 1 Tbsp crispy chick peas. Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired. Serve with remaining chick peas.
