Instructions

Remove leaves and core from the cauliflower head. Cut into chunks and pulse in a food processor until it resembles couscous-sized grains. Avoid over-processing to prevent mushiness.
Transfer the riced cauliflower to a large bowl. Add the finely chopped parsley, mint, diced tomatoes, cucumber, and green onions.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, and minced garlic until well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cauliflower mixture. Toss gently to coat evenly.
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Adjust lemon juice or olive oil if desired.
Let the salad rest for 10 minutes at room temperature to allow flavors to meld.
Serve chilled or at room temperature as a refreshing, healthy gluten-free side dish or light meal.
