I’ll be really honest, I’m tired of cauliflower.

This past summer, my mother-in-law bought me two g-i-a-n-t heads of cauliflower. I cleaned, prepped, and froze them to use little-by-little. I still have a little left.

And I am tired of it.

Really. Really. Tired.

But here’s the thing…….spring, flowers, birds singing, sun shining……spring was usually greeted by my first potato salad.

I love potato salad.

I can easily eat it every day for every meal all spring and summer!

And the thought of cauliflower tainting the tast of my beloved salad was unthinkable this year!

Not that I don’t like cauliflower in general — I do. But I’ve not been a fan of every cauliflower substitute I’ve tried.

Some of them have been downright awful, if I’m honest.

Then I saw people using radishes.

I was skeptical at first — I mean, they tend to be a little spicy. But since they were on sale at the store, I figured I could afford to try it out.

OH HAPPY DAY!!!!

I can enjoy my potato salad again — sans potatoes!

I may just go to the store on Saturday and buy out all the radishes they have! (since we don’t get them year round)

Here you go.
