- 3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

- 2 tsp. honey
- 1/2 tsp. paprika
- 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
- 3/4 tsp. kosher salt, divided
- 1 medium head cauliflower, sliced into 2" florets (about 6 cups)
- 2 cups shaved red cabbage
- 1/3 cup chopped cilantro
- 2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
- 6 tortillas, warmed

Garlic Aioli
- 1/2 cup plain full-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 garlic clove, peeled and grated (using a microplane)
Preheat oven to 425°F.In a large bowl, combine olive oil, adobo sauce, honey, paprika, cumin, and 1/2 tsp. salt; mix well. Add cauliflower florets and toss to coat.Arrange cauliflower on a large rimmed baking sheet (coated with parchment, if desired, for easy cleanup) in a single layer and roast, tossing halfway through, until golden brown and crisp-tender, about 30 to 35 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare slaw by combining cabbage, cilantro, lime juice, and remaining 1/4 tsp. salt in a medium bowl; toss well. (The slaw will slightly soften as it sits.)
Prepare Garlic Aioli by combining yogurt and grated garlic in a small bowl; mix well.
Assemble tacos by spreading Garlic Aioli on each tortilla. Top with chipotle-roasted cauliflower, slaw, and sliced avocado.
