This is my adaption of a recipe that I found on-line. I have posted the full amount of ingredients for the dressing; however, when I made this I did have a considerable amount of dressing left. Please dress the slaw to your liking.

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/3 cup packed chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons chopped of fresh mint
2 tablespoons minced jalapeno peppers
1 teaspoon sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 cup lime juice
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 (16 ounce) jicama, peeled
1 tart green apple, cored
1 navel orange
1 large Hass avocado

Steps:

  • Place the cilantro, mint, jalapeno, sugar, salt, cumin and lime juice in the bowl of a food processor. Process until finely chopped, stopping once to scrape down the sides.
  • With the motor running, drizzle in the oil through the feed tube. Transfer the dressing to a measuring cup.
  • Do not clean the processor but use the medium shredder blade to grate the peeled jicama and apple. Place the shredded jicama and apple into a bowl. Peel the avocado and cut into bite size chunks.
  • Peel the orange with a knife removing peel and pith. Holding the orange over the bowl, section with a sharp knife cutting away the surrounding membranes. Cut orange sections in half and toss salad with dressing to taste.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste and if desired garnish with any additional mint or cilantro. Serve immediately.
