Name: Frisée and Bibb Lettuce with Radishes and Spring Onions
Prep time: 10 minutes
Yield: Makes 10 servings
Ingredients: 1/4 cup plain whole-milk yogurt; 1/4 cup mayonnaise; 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice; 2 tablespoons fresh chives, minced; 1/8 teaspoon sugar; Salt and freshly ground black pepper; 1 large head frisée, trimmed and torn into bite-size pieces; 3 heads bibb or 1 head Boston lettuce, torn; 1 pound radishes, trimmed; sliced if bigger than bite-sized; 2 spring onions or 4 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced; 2 medium carrots, peeled and coarsely grated

Radishes are in their prime right now. If you can find the small French Breakfast or Easter Egg varieties, just trim them and keep them whole, rather than slicing them.

Spring onions, immature onions harvested before their bulbs grow large, are available in farmers' markets at this time of year. If you can't find them, scallions make a fine substitute.
