Steam. Cut cauliflower (1 head) into bite-sized pieces and steam. This can be done in the microwave with water in a large microwave-safe bowl--microwave on high, for about 15 minutes. Or over the stove. Drain WELL!
Dressing. Add mayonnaise (1/3 cup), sour cream (1/3 cup ), mustard (1 tablespoon), paprika (1/4 teaspoon), salt (1/2 teaspoon) and black pepper (1/4 teaspoon) to a small bowl, and stir until well combined.
Combine. Add steamed cauliflower, hard-boiled eggs (4 diced), cooked bacon (6 slices), celery (½ cup), and scallions (5 sliced) to a large bowl and toss to combine. Pour dressing over the top and fold until salad is well dressed. Taste and adjust seasoning to your liking. Place salad in the fridge for a few hours before serving (note 4), and enjoy!
Notes
Easy hard-boiled eggs: Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add eggs. Cook for 15 minutes, then place them in a large bowl with ice. Peel, dice, and add them in!
If paleo, low carb, or keto, read labels and look for sugar free bacon.
For a lighter version, consider subbing some of the mayonnaise or sour cream for Greek yogurt.
