I tend to go light on my salad dressings and this recipe includes just enough to coat the veggies, so make extra if you prefer a little more. Cauliflower and Radish Salad Salad: 3 cups steamed cauliflower florets, cold 1 bunch of small radishes, sliced 1 large stalk of celery, sliced 2 scallions, chopped
Dressing: 1 tablespoon Vegenaise 1 teaspoon stone ground mustard or grainy Dijon 2 teaspoons rice vinegar 1 teaspoon agave nectar (or to taste) Combine ingredients for dressing in a mixing bowl. Adjust flavors if needed and season with salt and pepper to taste. Add all of the salad ingredients to the bowl and toss well. Note: Radishes may soften if left sitting in the salad so I find it's best served right away. If you need to make the salad in advance, you can keep the sliced radishes separate and mix them in right before serving. Yields 3 servings.

Cassie, this looks sensational. Can't wait for the winter weather...I've got to get over my dislike of cauliflower and this WILL be the way! |
Lucy, I hope the salad makes a cauliflower fan out of you! It reminds me of potato salad without the heavy feeling that potatoes can leave me with. Let me know how it works out for you. |

Cassie, I made the cauliflower salad this weekend. Very good. I also made your red lentil soup recipe with the tomato and chilipolte sauce. Excellant and so simple. I was worried about it when making it, and I had to do a few substitutions, but I was amazed at how flavorful and good it was! Love it. Thanks, for an excellant web site. Gina |
Thanks for taking the time to comment and glad to hear you liked both recipes. I would love to know what substitutions you made if you care to share! Have a great day and hope to see you again. |
| I made this salad today, sans celery. I used cucumber instead, and it was realy tasty. I'm planning on trying that lentil radish sandwich tomorrow. Thanks for the great site! |
| Good to hear you enjoyed it! It is a nice, simple salad, isn't it? Enjoy the lentil-radish salad. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! |

I didn't have a tomato for the red lentil soup, so on the fly I substituted salsa. That was the only substitution I made. Again I can not compliment you enough on this wonderful website. Gina |
| Gina, great thinking with the salsa substitute for tomatoes in the red lentil soup!! I like that and it sounds wonderful. It's an absolutely perfect use of extra bottled or fresh salsa too, which I will be keeping in mind. Thanks for sharing your tip! And I appreciate the kind words - it means a lot to me. |
