I am a firm believer that salads should not follow a strict recipe. I outlined some approximate amounts but please adjust ratios of ingredients to your preferences!

Ingredients
1 cantaloupe, skin and seeds removed
1 large watermelon radish (or 2-3 small ones)
1 handful Radishes
1 small bulb of fennel
a handful mint, leaves picked from stem
4 mini cucumbers
olive oil
apple cider vinegar
1 Cup Plain yogurt
2 cloves garlic, grated
1 Tbsp ground sumac
1 Tbsp lemon juice
salt and pepper
Directions
- Using a mandolin, very thinly slice the radish and fennel. Sprinkle with salt.
- Smash the cucumbers lightly with the side of a knife, cut into large-ish irregular sizes chunks. Cut the cantaloupe to similar size cubes as the cucumber.
- For the yogurt dressing, combine the yogurt, garlic, sumac, lemon juice, and a good drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to your liking
- To assemble, spoon half the yogurt dressing on the bottom of the plate. Add the fruit and vegetables, drizzle with olive oil, a bit of apple cider vinegar, and sprinkle with salt. Top with dollops of the remaining yogurt mixture.

love this recipe! I couldn’t find watermelon radish or sumac at my local grocery store so I just added more regular radishes and added lime zest to the dressing instead of the sumac and it turned out great!
