Submitted by Chocolatl

"This uses raw cauliflower. Adapted from Elena Zelayeta. I don't salt salads, so I've made the salt optional. Cook time is chilling time."

This easy to make salad used ingredients normally on hand although this time I used a purple onion. The key for me was using a dressing we liked. Thank you for sharing the recipe!

Glad this one could be pre-made since I had my hands full with other recipes needing to be served hot to the guests at my tapas party. Great flavor and combined well with the other dishes I had available to taste.
