Put all the fennel into a bowl.

Cut the stems off the radishes and cut the radishes into thin slices, add to bowl.

Lightly salt and pepper the vegetables to taste.

Juice the lemon and add to the bowl just before ready to serve. Toss to coat.

    Great combination of vegetables, but this recipe needs a little 'spark'....add a tablespoon or two of olive oil, two chopped green onions, and a dash of celery salt (in place of regular salt). Let the flavors develop for at least 15 minutes before serving. - 6/28/10

    I have used fennel seeds on pizza, but have NOT used the bulb. I love to try new things, so may make this down the road. - 6/28/10

    I am going to try this warmed . . . I have done this before with radishes AND fennel. Also garlic and onion powder are good flavorings. - 6/28/10

    Usually I make fennel with mandarin oranges and lemon juice. This is a nice change - 6/28/10

    Wow, finally a truly healthy recipe! I agree a little olive oil is in order though.
    I also like radishes chopped up in full fat Greek yoghurt with some Maldon sea salt and blackpepper - yummy for breakfast!
