A delightful and creamy cauliflower salad with a smoky bacon twist, perfect for any occasion.
In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and ground black pepper.
Whisk the dressing until smooth for an even coating.
Chop the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and add them to the bowl.
Cut the cauliflower into uniform pieces for even flavor distribution.
Peel and chop the hard-boiled eggs, then add them to the bowl.
Use a sharp knife to avoid crumbling the eggs.
Dice the red onion and dill pickles, then add them to the bowl.
For a milder onion flavor, rinse the diced onion under cold water before adding.
Crumble the crispy bacon and mix it into the salad.
Add the bacon just before serving to maintain its crunch.
Stir all ingredients together until well coated with the dressing.
Ensure all ingredients are evenly coated for the best flavor.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 2 hours before serving.
Chilling allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Serve the salad chilled and enjoy.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or dill for a vibrant presentation.
