Recipe: Cauliflower (Potato) Salad
Servings: 5 • Serving size: 1 cup
• 1 head cauliflower, cored and
cut into bite-sized pieces
• 3 tbsp skim milk
• ¼ cup plain, non-fat Greek
yogurt
• ¼ cup light mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp white vinegar
• 1 tbsp yellow mustard
• 1 tsp celery seeds
• 1/8 tsp ground black pepper
• 4 hardboiled eggs, minus 2
yolks, diced
• ½ cup diced celery
1. Bring 2-3 inches of water to a boil in a large pot and place a steam basket
over the pot with the cauliflower florets. Cook for 5-7 minutes until fork-
tender. (Can also steam in the microwave: place florets in microwave-safe
bowl, add enough water to cover the bottom of bowl. Cover the bowl with
plastic wrap and poke holes in top, microwave for 3-4 minutes or until
fork-tender).
2. Place ½ cup cauliflower in a blender or food processor with 2-3 tbsp skim
milk. Blend into a thick puree, then set aside.
3. Put the remaining cauliflower into a colander and run cold water over it to
stop the cooking. Set aside to let the water drain.
4. In a large bowl, whisk together yogurt, mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, celery
seeds and pepper.
5. Gently fold in the cooled and drained cauliflower florets, eggs, celery and
green onions.
6. Next, fold in the pureed cauliflower and season with pepper.
7. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
