Roast Cauliflower Salad with Zingy dressing
This Roast Cauliflower salad with zingy dressing is absolutely divine. The toasted roast cauliflower, potatoes, chickpeas and onion are spiced beautifully and the dressing is gorgeously zingy and amended from a Diana Henry recipe. Made with pistachios and lemon, it is divine and a dressing I want to pour onto everything.
