I usually make this bacon, lettuce, onion, pea, cheese and cauliflower layered salad in a large flat bowl. There's never too much because everybody loves it! You can vary the salad by substituting green onions for red, jack cheese for the Cheddar, etc.

Tips:

To save time, use pre-riced cauliflower or broccoli rice. You can also rice the vegetables yourself using a food processor or grater.
If you don't have a bacon-flavored cooking spray, you can use regular cooking spray and add a teaspoon of bacon bits to the salad.
To make the salad more substantial, add some cooked protein, such as grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu.
If you like a sweeter dressing, add a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the vinaigrette.
For a tangier dressing, add a tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to the vinaigrette.
Serve the salad immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Bacon cauliflower tossed salad is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy your favorite vegetables. It's perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and it's also a great side dish for grilled meats or fish. With its crunchy texture and smoky bacon flavor, this salad is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
