Radish Salad
Time: 15 minutes
Serves: 8
Inspired by: I like the crunch and spiciness of radishes. This is a salad I’ve started to make more often because it has a fabulous combination of spicy and sweet with the acid of the dressing and goes well with just about any other combination of fish and vegetables that we enjoy.
Salad Ingredients:
- 8 handfuls of Arugula and/or other peppery greens
- 2 cups radish sprouts
- 4-8 radishes sliced 1/8″ thick
- Nectarine or pear sliced into 1/8″ thick pieces
- Persian cucumber (optional) sliced into 1/8″ thick pieces
- Toasted almond slices
Dressing Ingredients:
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 1 clove crushed garlic (optional)
- salt and pepper
Preparation:
- Mix the salad dressing ingredients in a shaker. I like the simplicity of this lemon dressing for this salad.
- Toss the greens with the dressing first.
- Add the radish, fruit, cucumber and toss well.
- Top off with the radish sprouts and toasted almonds.
