Ingredients
Roasted Radishes
- 1 bunch cherry radish about 8 to 10
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Butter Dressing
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
Salad
- 1 small head butter lettuce torn into bite-sized pieces
- 3 tablespoons toasted sunflower seeds
- ¼ cup shaved veg-friendly parmesan
Instructions
- Heat oven to 425˚F. Trim radish ends, leaving about one inch of greens on top. Quarter each radish and toss with olive oil and salt. Place in a roasting pan and roast until browning and tender; 15 to 20 minutes.
- When the radish are just about done, melt the butter in a small skillet. Remove from heat and add the lemon juice, salt, and thyme. Remove the radish from the oven and add the butter to the pan, tossing to coat the radish.
- Assemble the salad with the torn butter lettuce, toasted sunflower seeds, and shaved parmesan. Add the radish and butter from the pan to the salad. Toss to combine and serve.
Notes
Tips + Tricks: I use a large amount of sunflower seeds on salads and grain bowls. Toast 1 cup or so and keep them in an airtight container for a week or so.
