Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 head raw cauliflower (cut into florets)
1 whole bunch parsley (stems partially removed)
3 to 4 Roma tomatoes (very small diced or chopped)
1 English cucumber (hot house cucumber, chopped)
1/2 red onion (finely chopped)
1 to 2 garlic cloves (minced)
Kosher salt and pepper
Juice of 2 lemons
Extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Place the cauliflower florets in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a blade. Pulse a few times until the cauliflower turns rice-like in texture.
  • Transfer the finely chopped cauliflower into a larger bowl. Add the parsley, tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions. Give the salad a quick toss to combine.
  • Now, add the minced garlic and season with salt and pepper. Finish with fresh lemon juice and a good drizzle of extra virgin olive oil (about 2 tbsp). Give the salad one more good toss to combine.
  • For best results, set the cauliflower salad aside for a few minutes before serving to allow the cauliflower to soften and absorb some of the dressing. You can also cover and chill for later. Enjoy!
