A Favorite Recipe

Today for our Easter family cookout I made one of my favorite salads. It is easy and a complete meal all by itself. It is fresh and crisp and if you make your own mayo (I do) it is also Paleo!

Broccoli Cauliflower Salad

1 head of Broccoli
1 head of Cauliflower
1/2 to 1 C of Mayo
6 hard boiled eggs chopped (include 3 of the yolks)
1 lb uncured bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
ground black pepper (and salt if you want) to taste

Chop all the veggies and toss in a bowl with enough mayo to moderately coat. (You don't want the mayo to overpower the other flavors.)
Add in the egg, bacon and pepper and mix well.

You can also add:
Cherry tomatoes, halved (or grape tomatoes)
1 Tbs of Horseradish
1/2 C chopped red onion

With Spring upon us and the beautiful days ahead, why not enjoy this salad and some grilling outside? Gluten-free doesn't have to be boring!
