Spicy Marinated Cauliflower Salad image

Simple cauliflower salad dressed in a homemade vinegar dressing that is a perfect side for a summertime BBQ, picnic, or potluck. My inspiration came from my love of giardiniera. Feel free to omit the crushed red pepper flakes for a non-spicy version.

The cauliflower was a bit tough. I would recommend cooking it for a shorter amount of time.

The salad was a bit bland for my liking. I would have liked to see more bold flavors in the marinade.

I found the marinade to be a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.

This cauliflower salad is a delightful blend of flavors and textures. The marinade infuses the cauliflower with a spicy, tangy kick, while the crunchy vegetables and creamy dressing add a nice contrast.
