RECIPE: Summer Radish, Walnut and Herb Salad
Living in tune with the cycles of the seasons for me means I honor my body's desires for fresh, light and raw foods during these hot days of summer! My little garden produced a small bounty of radishes and herbs, which were perfect for this gorgeously vibrant salad. Nothing could have been more satisfying on a balmy summer night!
You Will Need:
1/2 cup walnuts
1 Bunch small radishes, sliced
1 cucumber, sliced
Juice of 1 lemon
1/3 cup EVOO
Salt and pepper
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
Handful of sliced chives
1/2 cup fresh dill
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
1 cup spinach
How to Make It:
Whisk together lemon juice, EVOO and salt and pepper to taste to make the dressing. Set aside.
Combine radishes, cucumber, and walnuts in a bowl with 1-2 tbsp dressing and toss to combine.
Add crumbled feta and toss gently.
Arrange a bed of spinach on each plate and lightly drizzle dressing over the leaves. Top with radish mixture.
In bowl combine chives, dill and mint with 1 tbsp dressing. Toss to combine and pile on top of radish mixture.
Enjoy!
