Yesterday, I was contemplating what to cook for my family this weekend. That’s how this roasted radish salad came to be! My kids love potatoes no matter how you prepare them, but potatoes are fairly high in calories and are quite starchy. I considered how I could make a poato dish a bit healthier. As I searched for inspiration, the idea of making the same potato recipe I usually make when roasting potatoes, but substituting a healthier ingredient for the potatoes came to me. This is where radishes came to mind.
Radishes are a spring vegetable and filled with vitamin C. It is a great vitamin for rebuilding tissues and keeping bones & teeth healthy. One medium-sized radish supplies only one calorie compared to a medium-sized potato’s 160 calories. Of course radishes taste different from potatoes, but different can be good. Especially when it is a healthier alternative that tastes great roasted.
