Cauliflower Salad with Mustard Dressing


I had a few cauliflower florets left.  Either, I was going to happily chomp on them or I was going to make a salad.  I would have liked to eat them.  Try cauliflower dipped in a dill dip.  That is what life is about.  I made the generous decision and decided to share so I made this mustard dressing from Food.com.  You can find it here.

Cauliflower Salad with Mustard Dressing  Adapted

Ingredients:

1 cup cauliflower, cut into bite sized florets
3/4 cup chopped scallions 

Dressing
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste

Method:

Boil the cauliflower florets for just 3-5 minutes until partially cooked.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the Tofutti sour cream, mustard, lemon juice, sugar, salt and pepper; set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, toss together the cooled florets and scallions

Pour the dressing over veggie mixture and gently toss to evenly coat.

Eat and Enjoy.

    This looks lovely! I love cauliflower but have not tried them in salad before. Dijon mustard with sour cream sounds good!

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I
