Steps

1
Prepare the cauliflower. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line 2 medium-large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
2
In a large bowl, toss together the cauliflower and olive oil until thoroughly coated.
3
In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, ancho chili powder, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and ground black pepper until combined.
4
Add the seasoning mix to the cauliflower and toss together until fully coated.
5
Add the cauliflower to the prepared baking sheets and bake for 20-22 minutes, or until fork tender. If the baking sheets are on different racks, switch them to the opposite rack halfway through so they roast evenly.
6
While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the red cabbage. In a small bowl, mix the cabbage and lime juice to coat. Set aside until ready to serve.
7
While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the cashew crema. Add all the ingredients for the crema to a large blender. Blend until completely smooth, about 1-5 minutes depending on the power of your blender. Pour into a small bowl and set aside until ready to serve.
8
Assemble the tacos by topping warm corn tortillas with roasted cauliflower, red cabbage, diced avocados, cashew crema, queso fresco or cotija cheese, and chopped cilantro.
