Calling all cauliflower lovers: you will go wild for this dish

I dearly love cauliflower and broccoli, but my husband hates both as much as I love them! So, I prepare this wonderful salad anytime we’re going to a family potluck. I’ve never come home with anything but an empty bowl. I guess Cliff just doesn’t know what he’s missing out on.
