4 cups loosely packed spinach
Juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 tablespoon roughly chopped fresh lemon thyme or regular thyme
1 tablespoon roughly chopped fresh mint, plus more leaves for topping
2 bunches red radishes, thinly sliced
1 hothouse cucumber, unpeeled and thinly sliced
1 kohlrabi, peeled and thinly sliced (halved if large)

Instructions:
Place the spinach on a platter and drizzle with half of the lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste.
Whisk the remaining lemon juice, remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, the cider vinegar, lemon thyme, mint, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl until combined.
