Instructions
For the tacos:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On a parchment-lined baking sheet, toss brussels sprouts and radishes with oil, honey, coconut aminos, chili powder, and salt. Roast until the veggies are crisp and golden brown on the edges, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.
- Char corn tortillas by using tongs to hold them over a gas burner until they start to blacken on the edges. Flip, blacken, remove and keep warm by placing in a large ziploc bag. Alternatively, you can wrap tortillas in a towel and place them in the oven for a few minutes.
- On each tortilla, add a scoop of mashed avocado, then top with brussels sprouts, radishes, pickled onion, cilantro, and peanuts. Drizzle with peanut sauce and serve with lime wedges.
For the spicy peanut sauce:
- Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth. If sauce needs thinning, add a little hot water and blend. Store in a jar in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
