Nothing says spring to me quite like a radish. I know, that’s a little weird, but it makes sense when you live in a place like San Diego that has zero seasons. So, I track the ‘seasons’ based on what vegetables I can eat. Plus radishes are delicious! Anyway, this roasted dish has been on repeat for the last month. …

Whoa. It’s April. Like, all of a sudden I looked at the calendar and realized a) April Fool’s day falls on a work day; beware of office pranks and b) It’s spring and I need to invest in more regular pedicures.
