Ingredients for Atkins Cauliflower Potato Salad

  • 1 medium head cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon sugar substitute (erythritol or your preferred brand)
  • Dried Mustard
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • Jalapeno Peppers
  • Salt And Pepper

How to Make Atkins Cauliflower Potato Salad

  1. Cut 1 medium head of cauliflower into bite-sized florets.
  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
  3. Drain the cauliflower and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside to cool completely.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon sugar substitute (erythritol or your preferred brand), and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard.
  5. Add the cooled cauliflower, 1/4 cup chopped green onions, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to the bowl.
  6. Gently fold everything together until the cauliflower is evenly coated in the dressing.
  7. Season with salt to taste.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
