Herb Cauliflower Salad Recipe

So is Cauliflower the new grain?

There seems to be nothing you can’t do with it: Grind it with the right seasonings, and you get a Pizza crust; Throw in a handful frozen cauliflower with your other smoothie ingredients and it’s a leaner and no delicious smoothie; Throw it in a frittata; make a fantastic soup; make roasted cauliflower pasta. OK, there’s a lot more but you get the idea!

Cauliflower is the “new” foodie darling:

Ideally nutritious, delicious and lean, and no carbs. Once considered boring but somewhat compulsory food, now it finds its way in no end of exciting dishes!

My herb cauliflower salad here is inspired from its other delicious herb cousin: Tabouleh. But instead of starring wheat or quinoa, it stars the humble cauliflower.
