Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups radishes
- 1 large cucumber
- 0.5 small red onion
- 0.5 cup fresh parsley
- 0.25 cup fresh dill
- 1 large avocado
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by washing the radishes and cucumber thoroughly. Slice the radishes thinly and place them in a large salad bowl.
Peel the cucumber if desired, then slice it into thin rounds. Add these to the bowl with the radishes.
Thinly slice the red onion and add it to the bowl with the other vegetables.
Chop the fresh parsley and dill and combine with the salad mixture for added freshness and flavor.
To make the dressing, in a separate smaller bowl, mash the flesh of a large avocado until smooth.
Add to it the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture until it is smooth and emulsified.
Pour the avocado-herb dressing over the salad, and toss all the ingredients together until they are evenly coated.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes for a colder, more refreshing experience. This salad is perfect as a side dish or a light main meal.
