This salad-on-toast uses the whole radish, and I mean the whole radish, greens and all. It's such a phenomenal way to make sure you have no vegetable waste, and the salad itself is a dream. It uses a rich, dilly yogurt dressing and a creamy, crunchy avocado toast base to make a fantastic, easy and vegetable-forward plate.
1bunch of radishes, stems and bulbs, about 1 pound
1/4cupskyr or plain greek yogurt
1lemon, for zest and juice
1tablespoonhoney
1tablespoonolive oil
2clovesgarlic, minced
1/4cupfresh dill, finely chopped
Salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes to taste
2slicesbread of choice
1/2large avocado
Instructions
Separate the radish bulbs from the stems. Clean both of them very well, I recommend using a salad spinner for this!
Finely slice the radishes into half-moon pieces. Chop the radish stems into bite-sized greens. Set both to the side.
In a large bowl, add the yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, olive oil, minced garlic and dill. Mix and add a pinch each of salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes. Season and adjust the salt, pepper and red pepper to your preference.
Add the radish slices and the radish greens directly into the bowl with the dressing. Use clean hands to give it a nice toss to fully coat the greens in the dressing.
Lightly toast the bread slices, and add a generous smear of avocado to each.
To plate, take a large scoop of the radish salad and pile it high on the toast. You want this to be what I call a "fork-and-knife" kind of toast.
Top with more fresh cracked black pepper and enjoy!
