In a large bowl, combine the cooled cauliflower, onion, bell pepper, jalapeno, tomatoes and cilantro and toss.
Stir together the mayo, sour cream and the next 7 ingredients. Combine the dressing with the veggies and toss gently to coat. Depending on the size of your cauliflower heads, you may not use all the dressing. Dress as desired. Spoon the salad into a serving bowl and top with more cheese and chopped cilantro. Serve immediately. To serve later, cover and chill until serving.
