    • Remove the chiles from the water, and include this water to prepare the Knorr® Brown Gravy according to package directions.
    • Puree the brown gravy with all ingredients and season to taste.

  3. Finish the Dish

    • Warm the tortillas over a grill or open flame.
    • Toss the cauliflower with enough mole sauce to coat.
    • Build each taco with cauliflower, cotija cheese, pickled red onion and cilantro leaves. Serve with lime wedges.
