Fun and tasty, this won't go to waste-y!
How can one hide the versatility of the cauliflower? A necessity of cook outs, picnics and barbecues everywhere, low-carbers and diabetics can partake in the bright colors, fun and deliciousness that is the staple of every cookout: The Potato Salad.
No need to cue the ominous music, my friends.
This isn't your average potato salad. This isn't even your average mock potato salad. Throwing some attitude into the mix, I have put this recipe together, using the extra flair of chopped red bell pepper, kosher pickles, and green onions for both color and flavor.
Better yet? The cauliflower is virtually undetectable.
If you want your salad to be slightly sweet, you may add some sweetener (to emulate salad dressing, as opposed to mayonnaise). Make sure to total 1 carb per serving of sweetener added to the overall dish.
Safety portion of our program: Make sure to keep this dish refrigerated or cold, as mayonnaise is an ingredient.
This recipe is induction-friendly and gluten-free.
