Ingredients

3/4 cup radishes
1/4 cup green onion tops (scallions)
8 ounces softened cream cheese
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

In a food processor, grind up radishes. Add green onion tops, and pulse a few times.
Cream softened cream cheese until smooth.
Stir in ground radishes and onions, onion powder and salt.
Place in a serving bowl. Chill for several hours.
Serve with crackers or veggies, or as a smear on a bagel or a sandwich.

Notes

- Be sure to start with softened cream cheese. I let mine sit at room temperature for a minimum of one hour to soften. If you skip this step, expect lumpy cream cheese.
- A food processor or a Ninja works great to grind up the radishes.
- Use the green parts only of the scallion. Scallions are also called green onions.
- Let the cream cheese radish dip chill in the fridge for several hours to let the flavors meld together.
- If desired, roll the radish dip into a ball to make a cheeseball.
- This is a great recipe to make ahead.
- Do not let the cheeseball sit out at room temperature for more than 4 hours. After 4 hours at room temperature, the food enters the danger zone for foodborne illness.
