Recipe Notes
- If you don’t have coarse Dijon mustard just use regular Dijon mustard.
- You can make hard-boiled eggs in the Instant Pot™!
- The salad will keep for three to four days in the refrigerator in a covered container.
Here's how to make it:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Put the cauliflower florets onto the baking sheet. Pour the olive oil, and a good pinch of salt and black pepper, on top of the cauliflower and toss to coat.
- Place the cauliflower in oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until tender but not too soft.
- Put the green onions, parsley, mayonnaise, relish, mustard and black pepper in a mixing bowl. Season with salt, to taste.
- When cauliflower is done cooking remove from the oven and let sit for 10 to 15 minutes to cool slightly. Add it to the bowl and mix well. Taste to see if additional salt or black pepper is needed.
- Top the salad with chopped hard-boiled eggs and serve or place in refrigerator to serve later.
