One of my family's favorite summer salads is our homemade potato salad. Of course when you eat the keto diet way you can't have potatoes. Sigh. That's ok though, luckily my ingenuity in the kitchen helps us create amazing alternatives that everyone will enjoy.

I mastered a keto diet approved "faux-tato" salad, a traditional version like my homemade potato salad. So, I decided to try something different.  This keto fauxtato salad  is SO EASY and will make a great side dish for any BBQ.

There is no stove top cooking with this recipe... which means... no heating up that already hot from summer kitchen!

Here is how to make our Keto fauxtato salad

Ingredients

  • 1 bag frozen cauliflower
  • ½ cup salsa
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • juice of ½ lemon
  • ¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1 small tomato, diced (optional, if you want to omit these carbs leave it out)

Seasonings- 1 teaspoon each

Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Cumin, Paprika, Chili Powder

a few chives, chopped

fresh cilantro, chopped

Salt & Pepper to taste
