This Keto German Cauliflower Salad resembles German Potato Salad with bacon, green onions, and a delicious and tangy mustard vinaigrette.

Keto German Cauliflower Salad

This Keto German Cauliflower Salad is a great side to pair with just about any meal (especially a keto schnitzel).  German food typically sits pretty heavy in the stomach, so this lighter low carb version will leave you feeling nourished without sacrificing flavor.  The mustardy dressing and the bits of bacon and green onion mixing with the cauliflower will make your taste buds do a little dance with each bite.

German food (and beer) used to be one of my hobbies before I started living the low-carb high-fat lifestyle.  In the town my wife and I went to college there was a German restaurant that we’d eat at about once a week, not on Friday’s though because they had live polka music on Fridays and I only made that mistake once.  No offense if you are a polka/accordion enthusiast, it’s not my cup of tea but, I do think I could rock some lederhosen.  The last time I ate there was right before Lauren and I was part of a world record attempt for the largest game of tag. Our attempt didn’t draw enough people to make it into the record books and I had a bad case of the schnitzel cramps after running approximately 200 yards, but we had fun anyway.

I know in the Keto-sphere there are tons and tons of cauliflower recipes and you’re probably sick of the cruciferous veggies. Now in case, you’re experiencing a little cauliflower burn-out, here are a few cauliflower facts:

  • By weight, cauliflower is 92% water and very high in fiber which is a crucial nutrient for weight loss, and digestion. Fiber is also important in regulating a healthy immune system.

  • Cauliflower is one of the only plant-based sources of the nutrient choline, in which most people are deficient. Choline aids in everything from promoting a healthy central nervous system to disease prevention to metabolism support.

  • Cauliflower is especially rich in the antioxidants glucosinolates and isothiocyanates, which studies have shown to be protective against colon, prostate, lung and breast cancers.

One of our favorite salsas has always been the taqueria-style jalapeño sauce that’s sometimes served with street-style tacos at your local Mexican restaurant. It’s richer than a salsa fresca or pico de gallo and is super creamy from the cooked jalapeños. We love the richness of it and it goes so well with so many things.

These Cauliflower Walnut Taco Cups were originally These Cauliflower Walnut Taco Cups were originally featured in our cookbook and now that Cast Iron Keto is focused on plant-based + low-carb recipes, we thought it deserved a permanent place on the website.⁠
⁠
If you have our cookbook, have you tried this recipe out of the Meatless Monday chapter? If not, we hope you do, even if you’re more omnivore than plant-based. Why? Because they are simply delicious!⁠
⁠
The combination of the crumbled walnuts, tender cauliflower, and smoky chipotle peppers in adobo sauce create a filling that, while it resembles ground beef, is much more layered in flavors.⁠
⁠
The toppings are completely up to you, these are just our go-to’s. Some type of creamy sauce would be delicious too. Maybe a bit of dairy-free (or regular) sour cream mixed with a bit of extra chipotle in adobo? Yes, that sounds just perfect. You can grab the recipe link in our bio!⁠
