Healthy Cauliflower Salad Recipe

You guys, I'm so excited about this recipe. It's probably my new favorite thing lately, because:

• cauliflower - hello good for you cruciferous vegetable;
• radishes and cucumber - more crunchy and healthy stuff everyone loves;
• creamy Tzatziki sauce that is healthier than ever;
• the best part - no oil or mayo is used, which makes this salad low-fat and super delicious.

This is one of the best vegan cauliflower recipes and you'll see why.

How to prepare cauliflower for salad.

Method #1. Roasting low and slow.

Well, not particularly slow, but you'll only need 20 or 25 minutes to get cauliflower to the right level of crunch. But you have to keep the temperature on the lower side, 350 F I would say, to keep it from drying out. 

When roasting cauliflower you can use olive oil if you want, but lately, my new favorite way to roast veggies has been to simply drizzle them with lemon juice. Just cut the cauliflower into small even size florets, place in a bowl, drizzle with lemon juice, sprinkle on some salt and pepper, and pop into the oven.

When you cook cauliflower according to this method, you'll end up with perfectly crunchy and lemony-flavored florets. So delicious!

Method #2. Boling.

This is the fastest method and you'll only need about 10 minutes.

Again, cut the cauliflower into small florets and place it in a pot with salted boiling water. Cook for 3-5 minutes and drain. 

Although the second method yields faster results, I personally love roasted cauliflower with a lemony flavor. It compliments the sauce and adds even more freshness to the salad.

Simple and easy Cauliflower salad is all about that creamy, crunchy, and delicious bite without unnecessary calories, which means you can have the whole thing to yourself:)

This healthy salad features familiar fresh ingredients like cauliflower, radishes, corn, and cucumber, but also some unexpected ones, like Cashew Yogurt.

Lately, I've been obsessed with it and along with simply having it for breakfast, I love incorporating it into a variety of dressings.

Note: If you're not a fan of dairy-free yogurts, you can certainly use classic Greek Yogurt and you won't even feel the difference.

This beautiful salad keeps well in a fridge, so you could make it in the morning and take it with you on a picnic a few hours later.
