Ranch Cauliflower Salad
This Ranch Cauliflower Salad is reminiscent of the traditional seven layer salad without so many vegetables and the layers. It may be a bit more kid-friendly too, at least it was for our family. If your family members and friends are not big fans of onion, just leave it out of the salad.
Barbara brought this to our family Easter and it is now added to our “go-to” menu for family gatherings, along with the Cold Crab Party Dip and Iced Thumbprint Cookies here on the blog.
This is another awesome recipe from the Pot O’ Gold Cookbook from the St. Patrick Altar Society of Imogene, Iowa. I think the sheer number of delicious recipes on our blog from this cookbook just solidifies the fact that we all know…church cookbooks are the bomb!
Be sure to cut the cauliflower into bite-size pieces so it is easier to get some on your fork along with the Romaine lettuce, bacon and cheese.
You can definitely make this Ranch Cauliflower Salad ahead of time and store in the refrigerator.
