Let’s talk about our salad ingredients!

We combine some awesome fresh ingredients which results in a salad that is both delicious and pretty. Cauliflower, English cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions are the main salad ingredients. You’ll want to chop your cauliflower into bite sized pieces for this salad. I used English cucumbers, but you can use regular cucumbers if you’d like. I used vine ripened tomatoes for my salad, but Roma tomatoes would be a great choice as well. You can cut your tomatoes into wedges or simply chop them if you’d prefer. I used a yellow onion, but a red onion would be a good choice too. I love fresh dill and use it whenever I can. If you want to use dried, you’ll want to substitute 2 teaspoons of dried dill in place of the 2 tablespoons of fresh. You can also use even more dill if you’d prefer!

What goes into the marinade for this marinated keto cauliflower salad?

The marinade for this salad contains just 5 simple ingredients, yet results in an awesomely flavorful mixture. It fondly reminds me of many salads my grandma used to make, using fresh ingredients from her garden. For this marinade, we combine distilled white vinegar, keto granulated sugar, water, salt, and pepper. After you combine your marinade ingredients, you’ll want to stir or whisk the mixture until most of the sugar is dissolved. Once you combine your marinade with the salad ingredients, you’ll want to refrigerate for a good two hours, or better yet overnight, if time allows. During this time, you’ll either want to stir the salad a couple of times, or if storing in a container with a good fitting lid, you can shake the salad up a couple times. When serving your salad, you can add as much or as little of the marinade liquid as you’d like!
