Directions:

Break apart the cleaned cauliflower heads with your hands or a knife, separating the individual florets from the stalk. If you have large florets, cut them into smaller bite-sized pieces. Place in a large glass bowl and set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise and vinegar. Add fresh dill (reserve some for garnish), salt, pickles, and celery seed. Stir to combine. Pour dressing over cauliflower florets and stir to coat evenly.

Dice 2 eggs and add to cauliflower, then sprinkle chopped bacon and diced green onions over top and mix well. Taste to adjust seasoning as needed.

Refrigerate two hours before serving.

Stir salad well before you serve to re-distribute dressing over the cauliflower. Slice and add the remaining two eggs as a garnish, along with the reserved fresh dill.
