Hooray, my sister can eat regular meals again since she is no longer breast feeding! By regular meals I mean ones with actual vegetables. Her babies get cranky on them. I went over for a fun night at her house and wanted to make something from my Hollygrove Market Box. And luckily she said I could experiment on her with Nero tondo, aka black radishes! I decided to utilize a condiment in my fridge I never use, Trader Joe's Aioli Garlic Mustard Sauce. Since I am not a mayo person, I love this stuff as a great sub in potato salad!
She is also cleaning out her freezer in anticipation of hurricane season. We found some fish while looking through it and decided to make that too. I had some fennel in dressing leftover from the eggplant fennel salad I made that week (clearly this is an old post!) that I decided to serve over that and it was delightful!
These veggies went so well with it and were so filling. The dijon adds a kick and the aioli adds a creamy factor, but not too much. It would be the perfect side for any protein! Try the Trader Joe's product or make your own as I have showed you below and roast any veggies with them, it is so delightful! Full recipe to follow the montage.

| The radishes look just like the potatoes! |
 |
| The cast. Most of this is local. Clearly not the carrots. |
 |
| I added the aioli in parts to help evenly mix. You can see my helper's socked foot in the corner! |
 |
| Mix them all up and get them ready for roasting. |
 |
| I served it with the blackened fish and fennel, so delightful. |

Look how roasted and delicious they are!
