Cauliflower Salad

(Pic and recipe from FaceBook. Original Source Unknown)

I love potato salad... but all those carbs! So here's a low carb potato salad / with cauliflower instead .... It is SOOOO good!

INGREDIENTS
1 head of cauliflower steamed or boiled until tender in bite size pieces

6 boiled eggs (when done peel eggs, rinse and separate yokes into a bowl.
Then mash the yolk and cut the whites into small bite size pieces  and then blend together.

1/3 cup (appx) miracle whip or mayonnaise (don't use light, it has more carbs)

3 tbs of mustard

3 tbs of pickle relish

1/8 cup of chopped onion (uncooked) can use more if you prefer

salt/pepper to taste



METHOD
Mix all together and you can garnish with egg slices and parsley.

Chill over night.

(1 cup of cauliflower is only 3 carbs vs 1 cup of potato is 37 carbs)

Potato salad with Sour Cream & Chives


INGREDIENTS

1.5 kg potatoes
2 x 175g Sour Cream & Chives Dip & Top
5 ml whole grain mustard
5 ml Dijon mustard
1 shallot, finely chopped
30 ml Sour Cream
40 ml chives, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

METHOD

Place potatoes, with their skins on, in a large pot and cover with water. 

Bring to the boil. Simmer for 15 minutes until just tender. 

Drain potatoes in a colander and place the colander on top of the hot pot, covering the potatoes with a clean dish cloth. Allow the potatoes to steam for 20 minutes. Leave to cool. 

When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, rub off the skins and chop into small cubes. In a large mixing bowl add the Sour Cream & Chives Dip & Top, whole grain and Dijon mustard, chopped shallot, Sour Cream and salt and pepper. 

Mix until fully combined. 

Add the potatoes, gently mixing them in using a large spatula until they are well covered with the dressing. Spoon into a large serving dish and top with freshly chopped chives.
