For the salad:

  • 3 or 4 baby cucumbers, sliced
  • 2 or 3 medium round radishes (or one French breakfast or carrot style radish), sliced
  • 1 small red bell pepper, diced
  • 2 chive flowers, florets removed from the flower head base on the main stem (or 1 tablespoon chopped chives)

Instructions:

  1. Whisk all of the vinaigrette ingredients together in a small bowl until the sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
  2. Add the vegetables and about half of the chive florets to a medium bowl and toss lightly. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad and give it stir. Sprinkle the remaining florets over the salad as a garnish.
  3. Chill for at least an hour.

Make this the night before and no more scrambling for weird leftovers the next morning for lunch that day!
