Roasted Radishes

Ingredients:
3 Bunches of Radishes - Leaves & Root cut off
4 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
1 tbsp Coarse Sea Salt
1 tbsp Cracked Black Pepper
1 tbsp Garlic Powder

Mix all ingredients together and place on a baking sheet.  Bake in a 450 degree oven for 1 hour.  Radishes will have a snap to the outer layer and a creamy and peppery inside.

Fun facts:
Radishes are rich in ascorbic acid, folic acid, and potassium. They are a good source of vitamin B6, riboflavin, magnesium, copper, and calcium. One cup of sliced red radish bulbs provides approximately 20 calories, largely from carbohydrates.
