The Protein Flower 🌺 Salad

Cauliflower is one of my favourite veggies because it is so versatile! Baked, pureed, spiced, fried, wrapped up, on the go, dog treat... it's even good as a crunchy bite all on its own.

I came up with my own version of a salad I saw online, that unfortunalty wasn't vegan - but had some great ideas to pull from.

All you need is...

1 small red onion - chopped

1 cup of baby spinach - finely chopped 1/4 of a cucumber - chopped 15 grape tomatoes - cut into halves 200 g (~2cups) tofu scramble - spiced with turmeric, pepper and Sriracha hot sauce 200 g (~ 3 cups) chopped/baked cauliflower (375 degrees F - 35 minutes)

** Even Walker likes cauliflower!

12 kalamata (black) olives - chopped into quarters

The Saaas..

2.5 tbsp fresh lemon juice 1 tsp minced garlic 1/4 cup flax oil 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper 1 pinch of sugar If you like, drizzle in some hot sauce to turn it up a notch.

HINT: keep the sauce on the side to keep the salad going longer (no soggy salads allowed) and for portion control. Sometimes I swap the sauce for a bit of the kalamata juice and Sriracha. Enjoy!
