Ingredients
  

1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets

1 cup all-purpose flour (use gluten-free flour for a gluten-free option)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust based on your heat preference)

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup water (or substitute with non-dairy milk for added creaminess)

1 cup buffalo sauce (store-bought or homemade)

4 large whole wheat or gluten-free wraps

1 cup shredded lettuce (romaine or butter lettuce for a crunchy texture)

1/2 cup diced tomatoes

1/4 cup chopped green onions

1 avocado, sliced

Optional: ranch or blue cheese dressing for drizzling

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Cauliflower Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and salt. Gradually pour in the water (or non-dairy milk), whisking continuously until the mixture forms a smooth batter.

      Coat the Cauliflower: Take each cauliflower floret and dip it into the batter, ensuring they are completely coated. Shake off any excess batter before placing the florets onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.

        Bake the Cauliflower: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cauliflower is crispy and golden brown. Remember to flip the florets halfway through the cooking time to ensure even crispiness.

          Toss in Buffalo Sauce: Once the cauliflower is done baking, transfer the florets to a large bowl. Drizzle the buffalo sauce over the baked cauliflower and gently toss until every piece is evenly coated in the zesty sauce.

            Assemble the Wraps: On a clean surface, lay out one whole wheat or gluten-free wrap. Begin by placing a generous handful of shredded lettuce at the center. Top it with a hearty scoop of the buffalo cauliflower, followed by diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, and avocado slices. If desired, drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing for added flavor.

              Wrap it Up: Fold in the sides of the wrap to secure the fillings, then roll it tightly from the bottom up to encase everything neatly. Repeat this process for the remaining wraps.

                Serve: Cut each wrap in half for easy handling and serve with extra buffalo sauce or dressing on the side for dipping.
