Ingredients

  • 1 large head cauliflower
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar
  • cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup chopped red onion
  • 6 slices fried bacon diced
  • 2 large hard boiled eggs peeled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon dill
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  • Chop the cauliflower into bite-sized pieces and place in a steamer basket. 
  • Steam for 3-5 minutes or until tender-crisp. 
  • Add the cauliflower to a large mixing bowl and place in the fridge to chill for 2 hours.
  • Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl of cauliflower and stir well to combine.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

Sour cream may be substituted for the mayo, if you're not a fan of mayo.
We like our cauliflower to still have a bite to it, but you can steam for as long as you'd like to reach the texture you prefer.
