For the salad

  • 1 cup (Daikon) radish julienned or sliced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1 avocado cubed
  • 1/4 cup unsalted almonds or other nuts of your liking
  • 1/2 cup feta or mozzarella cheese cubed or crumbled

For the dressing

  • 1/2 lime/lemon juice only (use less if using lemon)
  • black pepper to taste

  • Combine all dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk well until combined. Set aside.
  • Combine salad ingredients in a large bowl, drizzle with (Italian) dressing and top with almonds or other nuts of your choice.

Notes

  • Note: If you have some more time you could also make the Italian dressing below. It’s a bit more work, but it’s absolutely delicious.
  • Take-along tip: keep lime juice, olive oil, and black pepper or the Italian dressing in a separate container and store watercress on top.
