Potato and Cauliflower Salad
Cauliflower and potatoes combine with a zesty dressing of horseradish
and blue cheese for this interesting salad. Serve on salad greens
with grilled pork chops or cold meats for the Indian summer days
of fall. For maximum flavour delivery, serve at room temperature.
Salad dressing may be prepared ahead, allowing red onions to marinate.
