Been craving tamales really bad, and I found a good recipe to try. I would probably leave out the jalapenos/salsa until you can eat spicy foods (if you can at all), but they sound delicious and amazing and I never thought to use cauliflower for a tamale. Nom nom.

Ingredients
Directions
Cauliflower tamales!
2 bags of Green Giant Cauliflower Crumbles
4 eggs
1 tsp adobo seasoning
2 packets true lime / or lime juice from 2 lime wedges
10-12 oz meat of choice
Pickled jalapenos (optional)
1/2 cup world market salsa verde
9 corn husks
Soak corn husks in hot water for 2 hours before starting. Purée cauliflower crumbs until they reach a rice consistency. Place in cheese cloth and squeeze out excess water. Mix with seasonings and eggs. Lay out corn husks and apply thin layer of mass mixture even on husk. Measure 1-1.5 oz of protein of choice and put in center of husk. I added 3 jalapenos on top as well as a 1/2 tbsp of salsa verde on the protein. Fold husk together to close the tamale. Steam for 25 minutes and done!
