Ingredients
  

  • 1 large head cauliflower cut into small bite-sized florets (about 6 cups)
  • 8 slices bacon cooked crispy and crumbled
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

  • 3 green onions thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

  1. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, then drain on paper towels and crumble into small pieces.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
  3. Add the raw cauliflower florets, crumbled bacon, cheddar cheese, and green onions to the bowl with the dressing.
  4. Toss everything together until the cauliflower is evenly coated with the dressing and all ingredients are well distributed.
