0 0 Published Aug 06, 2024, Updated Nov 09, 2024 If you haven’t tried kohlrabi before, it’s a unique and delicious vegetable that has a similar texture to a broccoli stem and a flavor that’s a cross between a turnip and a mild radish. When roasted, kohlrabi becomes tender on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside, making it the perfect side dish to serve alongside your favorite protein. I love serving this veggie as a side to my cilantro lime chicken burgers, marinated chicken or air fryer salmon for dinner, but it’s also the perfect addition to salads and bowls like this grilled chicken salad or vegan power bowl.
