The Spicy Little Radish
Radishes hold a little surprise. They have this heat or spice to them that when I had my first radish (in my 20’s), I was not expecting it.
They come in varieties; red, pink, white, black and daikon but these little cuties are packed with 29% vitamin C (yay for cold and flu season), 7% folate, and 2 grams of fiber in 1 cup!
Radishes make awesome snacks dipped in hummus or a sweet mustard, they are great additions to salads or tacos, and have you had them roasted yet? No? Well then try this simple, tasty, warm side dish; Garlic Roasted Radishes.
