Roasted Radishes with Garlic and Oregano

I have to admit, I was never a fan of radishes. But when exploring different vegetables for a low carb diet I decided to give them a try. Turns out they are a surprisingly delicious low carb substitute. Roasting them provides a beautiful caramel flavor that calms the natural peppery taste and brings out their sweetness. Simply toss in olive oil, with garlic and oregano and roast until their are golden brown. Eat them on their own or as a side dish in lieu of your typical roasted potatoes. Even the pickiest eaters may not even realize they’re eating radishes.

For those fellow radish skeptics, you probably think I have lost my mind. But trust me, this is worth a try. You will not be disappointed.
