Radish & Cucumber Salad

Can I get a moment of silence for this kid-friendly/Mr. Diva approved radish salad?

At first, when I served this for dinner tonight, my entire family turned up their noses and said “no way.”  Then, after convincing Stew, my 3 year old, to try one ( because it was red and red is his favorite color), the rest of my family members decided to give it a whirl as well and they declared it to be “super scrumptious!” And gone was the salad. I love when my family tries new food and LOVES IT!
