Marinated Cauliflower Salad

Marinated Cauliflower Salad

Serves 4

A lemony marinade tenderizes cauliflower florets just enough to give them a slightly chewy texture that still crunches. Serve alongside Mediterranean-style offerings, or use as a two-in-one topping and dressing for a simple tossed salad.
  • 3 Tbs. lemon juice
  • 1 Tbs. Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic, minced (1 tsp.)
  • 1 tsp. olive oil
  • 2 cups bite-sized cauliflower florets (8 oz.)
  • 1 small red bell pepper, cut into ¾-inch dice (1 cup)
  • 2 Tbs. chopped fresh parsley
  • ¼ cup shaved Parmesan cheese, optional

1. Whisk together lemon juice, mustard, garlic, and oil in small bowl. Toss with cauliflower in large nonreactive bowl, cover, and refrigerate 4 to 8 hours. Stir 1 or 2 times while marinating.

2. Stir bell pepper and parsley into marinated cauliflower. Season with salt and pepper, if desired, and sprinkle with shaved Parmesan, if using.

Is all the ingredients listed? I mixed the marinade together and it was REALLY piquant, actually sour and unpalatable. So I added some brown sugar since I didn't have honey to balance the sourness. Added some fresh green onion (chopped). Tasted okay and it is marinating....we shall see.

I made this for our Easter dinner and everyone enjoyed it. The flavor was light and summery - perfect for an outdoor potluck.
