Pink Bouquet Salads!

I was excited to get some watermelon radishes in my weekly organic farm share. I've never had them before. They were crazy peppery, and burned my mouth where they touched (I'm very sensitive to spicy flavors) but the vinaigrette dressing I use helped coat them and make them go down easier. It was worth it though. They're so pretty!

Organic dried mango, snack mix (Naturebox cinnamon almonds, Naturebox praline pepitas, coconut
chips, and The Good Bean Cinnamon Sugar chickpeas,) organic salad (romaine, cabbage, watermelon
radish, tomatoes, sunflower and chia seeds, hemp hearts, dried cranberries, rosemary vinaigrette)

I peeled and sliced one of the radishes and used my flower veggie cutter to make enough flowers and cut-outs for several salads.

Cut one, use twice! I had my salad mix already chopped up for the week, and enough radish slices for a second salad. Nom!

Hail Merry macaroon, Naturebox cinnamon almonds, organic blueberries, organic salad (romaine, frisee,
cabbage, watermelon radish, carrot, sunflower and chia seeds, hemp hearts, raisins, rosemary vinaigrette)

This time I used a fancy flower cutter on the watermelon radish. So pretty! I used a tiny sun cutter on a carrot for some extra fancy. I had leftover frisee lettuce from one of my Plated meals, so it got added in with this week's salad mix.
