Bacon,Tomato and Cauliflower Salad

CauliflowerImage via Wikipedia
I made this a salad  few nights ago for dinner and it was gone before I had a chance to take a picture!  In its place, I've added a bacon brittle video from Nueske's Bacon.  I think Nueske's bacon is the best!  You can order it from the web at http://www.nueskes.com or fancy grocery stores carry it.  This is a low carb recipe.

1/2 head cauliflower
1/2 pound bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
2 medium tomatoies, chopped
10 to 12 scallions, sliced
1/2 cup mayonnaise
salt & pepper
lettuce leaves for serving (optional)

  1. Put the cauliflower through a food precessor with the shredding disk.
  2. Put it in a microwaveable casserole with a lid.
  3. Add a couple tablespoons if water, cover, and cook on high for 5 minutes
  4. Remove from microwave and uncover immediately to stop the cooking.
  5. Cook the bacon til crisp.
  6. Once the bacon and cauliflower have cooled, combine all the ingredients in a big bowl.
  7. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Scoop onto to lettuce leaves to serve.  This can also be placed in a mold or just a regular bowl.
