Description
This Low Carb, Keto Potato Salad combines all the flavors you’d expect to find in a typical recipe like mustard, mayo, pickles, onions and dill but uses cauliflower instead of potatoes, yielding only about 10% of the normal carbs. The fresh cilantro brightens the flavor as well, and the smoked paprika gives incredible depth to this Fauxtato Salad.
