Spring salad with watermelon radishes
Spring Salad with Watermelon Radishes
This beautiful vegtable is a watermelon radish.
Eaten raw it has a spicy flavor. But if its roasted with just a litte EVOO and sea salt, it really calms down the spiciness and gives it a juicy warm flavor. Plus it looks beautiful on a salad.
Radishes are rich in calcium, potassium, folate and vitamin C.

2 oz of spinach
1 cup of julienned carrots
1 cup of red cabbage

2 teaspoons of tamari soy sauce (or liquid amino acids)
2 teaspoons of white miso

These delicious cookies were such a big hit in our house and they were so easy to make. I found the recipe on sixvegansisters.com and decided to swap the vegan margarine for grass fed butter.
I love to sneak veggies into sweet treats…espicially this time of year when there are so many sweets available.
