Ingredients

  • 2 cups pink radishes thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cucumbers sliced
  • 1 cup red onion sliced

Salad Dressing

  • 1/2 cup olive oil extra virgin
  • 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1/2 tsp sugar/honey optional
  • 1 tsp dill fresh, chopped

Instructions

  • To make the salad, add the radishes to a big bowl and add salt. Let it stand for ten minutes. Drain out the liquid from the bowl. Now add the cucumbers and onions. 
  • Whisk together the salad dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Now pour the dressing on the salad and toss well to coat evenly.
  • You can add your favorite salad greens to make a one-bowl light lunch meal. Also, for a softer flavor, you can use green onions instead of regular onions. Enjoy!

Notes

It is best to put the dressing on the salad about three hours before you serve. Otherwise, the cucumbers and radishes may get too soggy and soft. 
For a creamy version, you can use a dressing of sour cream, minced garlic, and fresh chopped dill.
