Lite, Tasty, Refreshing Jicama Salad

My Aunt Cindie brought this tasty salad to our Memorial Day Party.  It was lite, crunchy, and refreshing.  This would make a nice addition to your summer BBQ parties.  Give it a try!

And, let me know if you have any great recipes for refreshing summer salads.

 

This recipe yields about four ½ cup servings.

 

You will need:

Salad

1 small jicama, about ½ pound

1 small red bell pepper, diced

2 green onions, finely chopped

2 TBSP fresh cilantro, chopped

1TBSP fresh lime juice

¼ tsp. fresh lime zest

1 TBSP fresh orange juice

½ tsp. grated fresh orange zest

Peel the jicama and cut into thin strips.

In a large bowl, mix together all the salad ingredients.

In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients.

Pour dressing over the salad mixture and toss to coat.

Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.

Serve and Enjoy!
