  • Cuisine: Italian

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 a head of cauliflower
  • 1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic peeled & chopped
  • 68 marinated artichoke heart quarters (about 1/2 of a 12-oz. jar)
  • 23 Tablespoons thin-sliced red onions
  • 1/2 cup matchstick carrots
  • 1/2 cup cooked chickpeas
  • 23 Tablespoons sun dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 3 radishes, halved & thin sliced
  • Optional add-ins: green and/or black olives, fresh or roasted tomatoes, red bell pepper, chunks of provolone, chicken, salami or other Italian cured meats

For the creamy mustard artichoke dressing:

  • 2 Tablespoons marinade from the artichokes
  • 2 Tablespoons good quality mustard
  • 2 Tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
  • A pinch of each: granulated garlic, onion powder and dill (or to taste)

For the top: crumbled feta cheese (preferably marinated – recipe here)


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 F. Cut the cauliflower into small florets. Place on a baking sheet lined with silicon baking mat, drizzle and toss with olive oil and garlic, then sprinkle with salt and Trader Joe’s 21 Seasoning Salute or your favorite no-salt seasoning mix. Roast in the oven at 425 for 10 – 15 minutes, then stir and roast another 5 – 10 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender and browned in spots. If you want to mellow out the onion flavor, you can add the onion in the last 10 minutes of roasting.
  2. While the cauliflower is roasting, put the remaining salad ingredients in a medium mixing bowl and then, in a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the salad dressing ingredients.
  3. Toss the cauliflower into the bowl and stir to mix everything together, then drizzle with some of the dressing and stir to coat. Add more dressing as needed until the salad is dressed to your liking. 
  4. Crumble feta cheese over top and enjoy warm, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for later. You can eat this cold or at room temperature, but personally, I feel it tastes best warm.
