Radishes, How to Prepare What you Grow

If you have radishes coming in from the garden but you are tired of eating them in salads or snacking on them, I have a few recipes for you.

These recipes below all use radishes in them in a unique way. So you can enjoy your bumper crop of radishes in a new way.

Soon we’ll be harvesting radishes from our garden.

If your kids would like to grow vegetables radishes can be very rewarding for them. They grow fairly easily. They can be planted in a medium-sized pot. They grow rather fast also. So the kids don’t have to wait so long to get results from their labor.

Here are our radishes we harvested last year. I grow two kinds of radishes french breakfast and sparkler radishes.The french breakfast radishes are the longer ones and the sparklers are the globe type radishes.

Both are really easy to grow and delicious too.

Most of the time we just eat these on salads. The ones we grow have more flavor than the ones from the store. So they are so much better. But homegrown vegetables tend to be a lot better in flavor than store bought one.

Now you may be wondering what else can you make with this vegetable, other than eat them in salads? Here are a few recipes to give a try. I am looking forward to trying some new recipes this year with our radishes.

I have found with my kids they are more willing to try new foods if they helped to grow them and help to prepare the food.

So if you have picky eaters you might give a new food a try by growing some at home or if you don’t have a garden have the kids helps with the meal prep.

They may just find a new food they love.
