My first time making a faux anything with Cauliflower, this was delicious! Not a big fan of cauliflower, but I will make this again!
Easy recipe to follow!
This is the third time I’ve made this and my husband and I love this. I did not use bacon or turmeric. I used ALOT of dill Pickles in place of the small amount of sweet Pickle the recipe calls for. Also increased the amount of celery for added crunch. and at least 6 eggs for added flavor and protein. This tastes so much like potato salad! Making it tonight for tomorrow’s 4 of July barbecue. This salad tastes best when refrigerated overnight so flavors can blend and everything will be nice and cold.
This was a outstanding dish .. I also added hard boiled eggs 3 and my husband ate it all he just love it since we’re both on low carb diets
Delicious recipe.
Delish would definitely make again, great sub for potato salad
So good. No changes.
LOVE this recipe. I tweaked it a bit by adding jalapeno mustard and dill pickle rather than sweet pickle and I will probably add more egg next time but otherwise the recipe is fantastic!
This was good, and is a great idea, but was a little on the bland side for us. I had never tried making a potato salad with cauliflower. So it was a nice change to make while reducing carbs. Next time I try this, I would add extra ingredients like more bacon, cheese, seasonings, etc. to try to cover up the prominent cauliflower taste in it, for us to like it better. Thank you for the recipe idea!
I loved it! I roasted the cauliflower and it tasted great. I skipped the sweet pickles. This recipe reminded me more of my mother’s potato salad. I added an extra egg.
This is a real keeper! It is so good and it really does taste exactly like potato salad. I’ve made this twice and the amounts are perfect. I use sweet pickle relish as per the cook’s notes. At my hubby’s request, I doubled the amount of hard boiled eggs because he likes a lot of eggs in his potato salad.
i basically cut the recipe in half– as cauliflower is $5.00 per head- i bought a 16 oz. bag of frozen @ .99– boiled for 6 minutes- and drained while chopping celery, onion and pickles–mixed everything together- sprinkled with paprika– was pretty and tasted just like my “tater salad”–other than chilling- it took less than 30 minutes– love this-served with ham slices and asparagus– a great dinner and great on the budget– Thanks a bunch, Bibi– another great recipe!!( i almost forgot, i did not add bacon, as i do not eat it- still perfect!)
Excellent recipe for a mock potato salad! I just steamed the cut cauliflower in a steam basket, but otherwise made it exactly as written. The flavors just keep combining, which makes this recipe wonderful as a make ahead option. We really loved the addition of bacon in the salad too. Placing the cauliflower in the freezer is ingenious as well especially if you need to serve it with your meal day of/right away. If you like dill in potato salads, just add a little dried dill or your favorite dill blend. As written, you won’t be disappointed though as it definitely hits the spot and is so delicious. Heck, this recipe is our new favorite for a mock potato salad! Thank you for sharing the recipe!
