Thinly sliced, raw cauliflower and cooked shrimp, marinated in a creamy dressing, are the main ingredients in this unusual salad. This has always been a hit at potlucks and family get-togethers. It tastes best if you make it a day before you plan to serve it.

This salad is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the shrimp, and they don't even notice the cauliflower.

I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The sweetness of the cauliflower, the brininess of the shrimp, and the tanginess of the dressing are all perfectly balanced.

I'm always looking for new ways to make cauliflower, and this salad is a great option. The shrimp and dressing add a lot of flavor, and the cauliflower is a nice crunchy base.
