Summer Salads: BLT "Potato" Salad

Over the next week or so, I will post some of my favorite cold salads.


BLT "POTATO" SALAD
1 medium cauliflower, cut into bite-size pieces
1 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons sugar free sweet pickle relish
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
Sweetener equal to 1 tablespoon of sugar
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved, about 5 ounces
1/2 small red onion, minced, about 3 ounces
3 hard boiled eggs, chopped
4 pieces bacon, cooked and crumbled
Lettuce leaves, optional

Place the cauliflower in a casserole with one tablespoon of water. Cover and microwave on HIGH for 6-7 minutes, stirring after 3 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, blend the mayonnaise, relish, mustard, parsley, salt, pepper and sweetener in a large bowl; set aside. When the cauliflower is ready, drain it well then add it to the mayonnaise mixture. To the same bowl, add the tomatoes, onion and eggs, tossing gently until blended. Cover and chill at least 3 hours. Stir in the bacon just before serving. Serve on lettuce leaves, if desired.

Makes 8-10 servings
