- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/4-1/2 teaspoon celery salt
- paprika (for garnish)
- salt and pepper to taste
Cashew Cream Sauce
- 1 cup raw cashews (soaked for at least 2 hours and drained)
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

- While the cauliflower is steaming, place all ingredients for the cashew cream sauce in a blender, and blend until smooth and creamy.
- If the mixture is too thick, add a bit more water and blend again until it reaches the right consistency. Set aside.
- Place the steamed cauliflower in a large mixing bowl.
- Add red onion, celery, green onions, dill, garlic powder, sea salt, and ground black pepper.

- Place in refrigerator for 1 hour before serving, so the flavors can meld together.
- Sprinkle with paprika before serving.
Notes
- Raw Cashews: You will want to use only raw cashews for this recipe. Roasted will yield a totally different flavor. It might be nice but won't seem like a typical dressing.
- Mayonnaise: Of course, if you aren't avoiding eggs, you can use your favorite mayonnaise as the dressing for this low-carb potato salad.
- AIP: And if you're on the AIP (autoimmune paleo) diet, you could sub in this Vegan Avocado Dressing for the sauce. It will taste amazing, but it will be green :). There are a few AIP ranch dressings you could use as well.
- Nut-Free Dressing: If you can't eat nuts, this Vegan Ranch Dressing is a fantastic alternative to the cashew dressing.
- THM: This recipe fits in as an "S" if you are on the Trim Healthy Mama plan.
