Loaded Cauliflower Salad

No ratings yet
This Loaded Cauliflower Salad is bursting with flavor and texture! It has eggs, green onions, bacon and the most delicious creamy dijon dressing! Did I mention theres bacon! It has been known around here as the faux potato salad and there are never any leftovers! It is perfect with any kind of protein and we especially love it with grilled barbecue chicken or steak!
