Cauliflower Zero Point Weight Watchers Tortillas
This post may contain affiliate links. Please read our full disclosure policy.
These Zero Point Weight Watchers Tortillas are the perfect pairing for Taco Tuesday and to bring down the points! In addition to that, they are low carb if you are tracking calories, but they are also high fiber as well. Pair these with boneless chicken breasts to make the ultimate low Weight Watchers points and high protein.
Now, if you haven’t had a girlfriend over to bake or cook, I highly recommend it! It makes the chore go faster, and the conversation is a great bonus. I have to say, this was the first time I have ever worked with cauliflower, so it was a whole new experience. However, fair warning, it does add a smell to your house when making these tortillas.
A Note From Jenny
When starting any healthy lifestyle, consult a doctor to address any personal health concerns. Some things can only be addressed medically and by a professional. Blood sugar levels, blood pressure, and hormones checked at a physical before starting and at least once a year, as these all can affect an active lifestyle.
With so many different programs, such as Weight Watchers, Keto, and macros, it can be hard to know what to pick. (If you’re interested in Weight Watchers, you can sign up -> here and sign up for $10/month for 10 months.)
I personally use the app Myfitnesspal to track my food. I use macros and focus on High Protein (calories, fat, protein, and carbohydrates) and rotate through cuts and maintenance calories. (Use a calculator like this -> here) . I did WW for years, but now that I am more maintenance, with cuts throughout the year, and focusing on mobility with strength training. There is no right or wrong answer, as all bodies are different.

How To Make Cauliflower tortillas:
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Cut off, and only use, the head of the cauliflower (the florets).
Using a food processor, shred your cauliflower. I used the shredded cheese blade on my food processor.
Place the shredded cauliflower in a large, microwaveable dish and add about 4 Tablespoons of water.
Microwave on high for about 7-10 minutes or until the cauliflower is hot to the touch.
While your microwave is going, chop up your cilantro.
Once your cauliflower is done, scoop out chunks of it onto a thin towel, I used a cloth napkin. Do not do it all at once; just about a fistful is enough.
Squeeze the towel over a sink to remove the excess water and moisture from the cauliflower as much as possible. This will reduce the baking time of the tortillas. I used an ice cream scoop since the cauliflower was hot.
**Note: You can place the cauliflower in the fridge between squeezing chunks to help cool it off.**
Place the squeezed cauliflower into a large, dry bowl.
When you are done squeezing all the cauliflower, add in your eggs, lime juice, cilantro, and salt and pepper to taste. I also used Cabela’s Tequila Lime seasoning. You can add some lime zest as well for a little kick.
Mix everything with your hands until the egg is well-blended and the cilantro is fully folded in.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, then use a scoop to place piles of the cauliflower mixture on the pan. Flatten each scoop of cauliflower once you have filled the pan.
*Note: You don’t want them to be too thin because the tortillas will break apart when you try to fold/roll them into a taco.*
Bake the tortilla for about 10 minutes, then flip them.
Bake for another 3 to 5 minutes and remove from the oven.
Allow to cool, and then serve!! We stuffed ours with shredded Instant Pot Taco Chicken.
The only thing that had points was my cheese and sour cream!! Talk about a win!!

How To store Cauliflower Tortillas
Store in the fridge in an airtight container. I stack mine in the container with parchment paper between the tortillas.
You can freeze these homemade tortillas. Allow the tortillas to cool completely before freezing. To freeze them, stack them with parchment paper between each tortilla, seal them into a Ziploc bag, and get as much air out of the bag. If frozen properly, I use mine within thirty days. They can be stored for up to six months in the freezer.
How To Reheat Cauliflower Tortillas
In the oven for frozen, you will preheat it to 300 degrees. Then wrap aluminum foil and place it into the oven for about 10 to 15 minutes until thoroughly heated through. YOu can do them in stacks this way but keep the parchment paper in between.
If the tortilla is thawed or refrigerated, warm up skill on medium to low heat. You can use a bit of nonstick, butter, or oil and heat until cooked thoroughly. Be sure to flip the torilla
Taco Topping Ideas
- Instant Pot Chicken Taco Meat
- 2 Ingredient Chicken Tacos
- Homemade taco Seasoning
- Sour Cream– Use low-fat or fat-free sour cream to lower the points in this topping.
- Salsa– Many salsas work out to zero points; use your weight watchers app to make sure they are zero points
- Guacamole– Even though avocados have points, they are full of good fat and will fill you up faster. Using a 0-point shell and chicken taco meat leaves room for the extras in your weekly allowance.
- Cheese– Use full-fat cheese or low-fat cheese; I prefer to use regular cheese and use the points since I don’t eat a

Notes
** *Note: You don’t want them to be too thin because then the tortillas will break apart when you try to fold/roll them into a taco.
* *Note: If you make these the day before or ahead of time, you can heat them back up in a warm frying pan. I do not recommend microwaving them as they will get mushy.
Isn’t it amazing to think about all of the things we do with cauliflower nowadays?
Not a fan of cilantro, is there another herb that can be substituted?
You could leave it out. You may also try cumin if you are a cumin fan that may add some great flavor.
