In celebration of Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I thought we’d get a shot of something oh so pretty and pink in our lives.
Meet roasted pink radishes.
Different – yes – but completely delicious and unexpected. A little off-course from your typical day to day vegetable routine, which is a good thing. Let’s shake things up a bit, shall we?
These roast up beautifully with some olive oil, salt, and pepper. While still warm, toss with minced garlic, parmesan, and shredded basil for a healthy and beautiful side dish to any meal.
That color. Gets me every time.

I had no idea you can roast radishes, though we eat them in salads all the time. Always on a look out for new veggies/methods to try, love this!

I adore roasted radishes! They’re a perfect stand-in for turnips when you either forgot to buy them, or when it isn’t quite turnip season…. plus they’re done in a jiffy (always a bonus). Beautiful stuff you got going on here!
Thank you so much Toby!
I’ve got to give these a try really soon! Thanks for linking up with What’s Cookin’ Wednesday!
