JICAMA CITRUS SALAD
Never tried jicama? It is a crunchy Mexican turnip, and I love to use it in this super easy salad. The jicama is ideal alongside the vibrant flavors of the tangerines and shallots. Between the sweet and sour flavors in this salad and its crunchy texture, it's all delish if you ask me. -Crystal Jo Bruns, Iliff, Colorado

CUCUMBER, JICAMA, AND FRUIT SALAD
The spicy sweetness of this Mexican salad is super-refreshing and delicious as long as you have ripe fruit; vary the ingredients depending on what you find. Really, any fruit is suitable, from oranges and apples to pineapples and papayas; peaches and melons are wonderful summer options.

JICAMA AND TROPICAL FRUIT SALAD
Jicama [HEE-kah-mah], also called a Mexican turnip or Mexican potato, is a starchy root vegetable you can eat raw. It soaks up the flavor of the fruits in this salad and still keeps its crunch.
