Ingredients
- 6-7 lices thick cut bacon cooked and diced
- 1 cup cheddar cheese cubed small
- 1 large head cauliflower chopped into small bite size pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Mayo Dressing
- 3-4 green onions sliced small
- 1/4 cup sour cream ( or replace with mayo for all mayo)
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1-2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- sugar if desired
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F.
- Toss the cauliflower, olive oil, salt, and black pepper in large bowl until the cauliflower pieces are coated in the oil.
- Spread the cauliflower pieces out on a large baking sheet.
- Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven until the cauliflower is tender crisp, 8-10 minutes depending on size. You don't want it soggy, just tender enough to enjoy in the salad.
- Remove the cauliflower and cool completely.
- Place all of the dressing ingredients into a large bowl and combine. Adjust the lemon juice and garlic powder to taste, then add in any salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the dressing is ready to your liking, add the cauliflower, cubed cheese and cooked bacon pieces to the large bowl and stir to coat them completely with the dressing.
- Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours before serving.
Notes
- If you don't have sour cream, use all mayo!
- The cauliflower is best when it's chopped small when you are using raw, just like my broccoli salad.
- When you roast the cauliflower the pieces need to be a little larger so they don't turn to mush.
- if the dressing is too tangy for your liking, mix in a bit of sugar to balance it out!
