Ingredients
– 1 head of cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
– 1/4 cup olive oil
– 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
– 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon dried basil
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

2. Add the cauliflower florets to the dressing and toss to coat evenly.
3. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours, allowing the cauliflower to marinate and absorb the flavors.
4. When ready to serve, give the salad a gentle toss to redistribute the dressing.
