German potato salad is traditionally done with…uh…potatoes…but on a low carb or keto diet, that may not be in the cards, so swap out the potatoes for cauliflower florets adn you still get all the flavor! I can see this also being done with chopped chayote!
850 grams raw chopped cauliflower (about 1 large head)
100 grams onion
30 grams celery
100 grams red, yellow or orange pepper
100 grams cucumber
30 grams cooked bacon (crispy)
60 grams white wine vinegar
15 grams olive oil
6 grams fine sea or pink salt
2 grams ground black pepper
1.5 grams dried parsley
Microwave cauliflower in a covered bowl until soft (about 10-15 minutes)
Cook about 3 slices of thick cut bacon well done and crush
Dice remaining vegetables adn mix all ingredients together
German potato salad can be eaten warm, but I tend to like to let it sit in the fridge overnight and absorb the flavors. Because there is no mayo, this makes for great picnics!
