Cut the cauliflower, carrot, and green beans into small, bite-sized pieces. Try to make them similar in size to ensure even cooking and aesthetics in the salad.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and blanch the cauliflower, carrot, green beans, and peas. Boil them for about 2-3 minutes just until they are slightly tender but still crisp. Quick drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
Take the radishes and slice them thinly.
Shred the deli-style cooked chicken breast into small, uniform pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the blanched vegetables, sliced radishes, and shredded chicken breast.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to make a creamy dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss everything together until all components are well coated.
Finely chop the fresh dill and sprinkle over the top of the salad for an aromatic finish.
Refrigerate the salad for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy as a refreshing low-carb meal or side.
