Ingredients

• Greek yogurt – Use thick plain Greek yogurt for best results. Regular yogurt tends to be too thin. Sour cream is also a suitable alternative.
• Honey or honey alternative – Use a low-carb honey alternative to keep this recipe keto.
• Radishes – Red radishes are traditional, but white or watermelon radishes add a unique twist if available.
• English cucumber – English cucumbers have thin, edible skin and minimal seeds. If using regular cucumbers, peel and remove the seeds before slicing.
• Green onions – Thinly sliced diagonally (both white and green parts).
• Fresh dill – Fresh dill provides an intense flavor. Dried dill doesn’t have the same impact.
• Salt
• Black pepper

How To Make Creamy Radish Salad

1. Stir together the Greek yogurt and honey or honey alternative until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
2. Clean and trim both radishes and cucumber.
3. Thinly slice radishes and cucumber with a sharp knife or mandoline.
4. Place sliced radishes, cucumber, green onions, and dill into a large mixing bowl.
5. Add the yogurt dressing and mix gently to evenly coat all ingredients.
6. Season with salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste.
7. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes to enhance the flavors. Enjoy!
