Personal Notes:
When Casey and I first met, I learned what a pescatarian is, which is a person who is a vegetarian, but also will eat seafood, because, you know.... sushi.

So one of the challenges I faced when cooking, was taking some of my favorite meals and making them friendly with her food preferences. Hence, cauliflower tacos.

It still tastes like cauliflower, but with the spices, and the way the cauliflower was prepped, it really started to mimic what an every-day chicken or beef taco would taste like. It was a great, and, I think, one of our first culinary compromises!

P.S. If you are anything like Casey, take the required amount of garlic for a recipe and just about double it.
