Cauliflower rice salad

vegan / prep time 5 minutes

This low-calorie, low carb salad is truly delish, easy to make and fits as a side dish to any meal.

I love making it for a bigger lunch, dinner or BBQ. The cauliflower is a great low-calorie substitute for the grains, like quinoa or bulgur. Without any compromise of the taste.

Since it is summertime I felt like adding some fruit to it as well, to give it a little sweet pinch. Here i chose redcurrant but any berry will be suitable.

Method

Finely chop all the fresh herbs and mix in a bowl with the cauliflower rice.

In a separate bowl combine all dressing ingredients, mix and add to the salad. Add the toppings (optional). Toss gently to combine. And enjoy.

I recommend to make the salad a few hours in advance, allowing the cauliflower to absorb the juices of the dressing.

Enjoy:)
