Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain. Once cooled, chop into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

02

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, combine broccoli florets, cauliflower florets, carrot, and green onions.

03

Step
3 mins

In a separate small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, and sour cream until smooth. Season with garlic powder and basil.

04

Step
5 mins

Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss gently to coat evenly. Add the chopped bacon and Cheddar cheese. Toss again lightly.

05

Step
1 hrs

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. This step is crucial for the best taste.

06

Step
2 mins

Before serving, stir in the chopped cilantro. Garnish with additional cilantro, if desired.

For a creamier dressing, add an extra tablespoon of sour cream.
If you don't have fresh cilantro, dried cilantro can be used, but use sparingly (about 1/2 teaspoon) as dried herbs have a more concentrated flavor.
To add a touch of sweetness, consider including a tablespoon of erythritol or your favorite keto-friendly sweetener to the dressing.
For a nuttier flavor, toast slivered almonds or chopped pecans and add them to the salad just before serving.
If you want to add protein, grilled chicken or chopped hard-boiled eggs would be a great addition.

    The instructions were clear and easy to follow. I especially appreciate the tip about chilling the salad for at least an hour – it really makes a difference in the flavor.
