1 head cauliflower cut in florets
4 tablespoons avocado oil separated
2 tablespoons taco seasoning separated
2 chipotle peppers in adobo minced, separated
1 bell pepper diced
1 jalapeño diced
1 yellow onion diced
3 cloves garlic minced
1 teaspoon cumin
12 ounces red enchilada sauce I got mine at Trader Joe's
2 cups low sodium broth
1 15-ounce can black beans drained & rinsed
1 lime juiced, plus more for serving
green onion, non-dairy yogurt, tortilla chips, lime wedges optional, for serving

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add the cauliflower, 2 tablespoons oil, 1 tablespoon taco seasoning and 1 chipotle pepper to the baking sheet and toss to coat. Spread an even layer and place in the oven for 20 minutes. Toss and cook for another 10 minutes, or until the cauliflower has a nice char.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a stock pot over medium heat. Add the bell pepper, jalapeño, onion, garlic, remaining taco seasoning and cumin to the pot. Stir to combine and cook down for 3-5 minutes, or until the veggies start to get tender.
Pour in the enchilada sauce, broth & black beans and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer until the cauliflower is done.
Right before serving, add lime juice to the soup, taste and adjust the seasonings as needed.
To serve, ladle the soup into bowls and top with the cauliflower & any of the optional toppings.

I made my tortilla chip strips in the air fryer. To make them, cut corn tortillas into strips, layer them in the air fryer basket, spray with oil and cook at 370 for 8-10 minutes, or until crispy – flipping every few minutes. Remove from the air fryer and sprinkle with salt.
