Cauliflower Cashew Salad

"This recipe is great for a big group because it makes a big salad. I use extra cashews because my family loves them so much."

Recipe

Salad:

• 1 head iceberg lettuce, washed and torn into small pieces
• 1 head cauliflower, washed and cut into bite-size pieces
• 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
• 2 cups seasoned croutons
• 2 cups cashews

Dressing:

• 1 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Combine lettuce, cauliflower, cheese, croutons and cashews. Set aside while making the dressing. Stir together the mayonnaise, sugar and Parmesan cheese. The dressing and salad can be made ahead and combined just before serving, making this a great potluck dish. Serves 10 to 12.

Tips From Our Test Kitchen: Try adding 1/2 cup chopped green onions. Adjust sugar to your taste. A lower-calorie dressing can be made using plain yogurt instead of mayonnaise or salad dressing.
