Celery, radishes, and fennel give this herb-packed green salad a satisfying crunch. The whole thing is tossed in a simple lemon vinaigrette and finished with shaved aged goat cheese. If you can find Meyer lemons—in season from winter through late spring—their juice brings the dressing up a powerful notch.
