My love for a good salad runs deep. Sometimes when I can’t sleep at night (which is often) I dream up recipes i want to make. I kept envisioning some sort of a cauliflower salad and this is what came to fruition. I made this to have on hand for lunches this week and loved it. The combination of the crunchy cauliflower, salty capers, creamy feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes and white beans is out of this world. It is all tossed with a lemon vinaigrette so it is a nice light and healthy salad. This can be made ahead of time and saves well in the fridge for several days. Enjoy!
C A U L I F L O W E R + W H I T E B E A N S A L A D
1 head cauliflower, chopped into bite size pieces
1 can cannelini beans drained and rinsed
1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes
2 small heads endive lettuce
4 oz crumbled feta cheese
3 tablespoons capers
chopped parsley
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinaigrette
juice of 2 lemons
salt and pepper
In a bowl combine the cauliflower, feta, endive, capers, parsley, sun-dried tomatoes and white beans.
In a jar combine the olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinaigrette, and salt and pepper. Shake to toss all together. I love this dressing shaker!
Drizzle dressing over the salad and toss all together.
That looks really good!!! I can’t wait to try it!!! Thank you!!
Made this tonight! Great salad! I had chickpeas on hand so subbed those! Love your salads!
Any substitute for sundried tomatoes?
I made this last night with roasted salmon – it was incredible! Who knew you could make raw cauliflower taste so good!
