- 3 radishes, trimmed
- 1/2 firm-ripe avocado, peeled and diced
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

- Thinly slice radishes, then cut into thin matchsticks. Transfer to a small bowl and add avocado, chives, oil, and lemon juice. Season with remaining 1/2 tsp. salt and toss until well combined. Spoon some salad onto each plate.
