Veggies time: Baked daikon

One of our grocery cost cutting strategies involves hunting for deals, which I am going to call "Food Deal of the Week" category.
During our last shopping we found daikon at a super low price. One smaller size daikon cost us $0.86, which is about 1/3 of the regular price. We also found leeks to be at 1/3 of their regular price, which is a great news however, we only managed to get one last bunch which won't be enough for experiments as we use a lot of leeks in soups.

I decided to try something new with daikon. Typically I would grate it or slice it and eat it raw in salads or on its own.
