ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteYou are welcome Marilyn. Thanks for hosting at Over the Moon!
ReplyDeleteI like jicama but I don't buy it very often. This salad sounds delicious. thanks
ReplyDeleteIt can also be hard to find fresh Jicama. Sadly, when coated in wax it is hard to know how fresh it is.
DeleteThis looks really refreshing and nice take on a traditional salad.
ReplyDeleteJicama is one vegetable I am trying to use more often, I love the crunch!
DeleteSo I had to go and look up what jicama is! I am pretty sure we can't get it here!
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting and crunchy! Think water chestnut crunchy! It is fun to cook with...thanks for dropping by, I appreciate it.
DeleteThere's lots of good salad ideas this week.
ReplyDeleteI think folks are already ready for spring! Have a great week ahead.
DeleteI just bought jicama on a whim this past week and wasn’t sure what I was going to do with it!
ReplyDeleteIt is good in this salad, but if you are looking for a quick and lightly spicy way to enjoy Jicama for the first time, cut it into sticks, squeeze lime juice over it and dip it in a little hill of chili powder mixed with garlic salt. That is a spicy (but not hot) way to enjoy it also! Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate it!
DeleteWhat an interesting take on a Woldorf salad! Thanks for sharing your recipe with the fiesta
