Jicama Confetti Salad image

This lovely salad is a crunchy and refreshing blend of jicama and colorful fresh vegetables that will light up a simple dinner. Jicama is a crunchy, slightly juicy vegetable that tastes like a cross between an apple and a raw potato. It is native to Mexico, and it is also prominent in Asian cuisine. It's just really tasty, to me!

I didn't have any jicama on hand, so I used carrots instead. The salad was still delicious.

I'm not a big fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The salad was still very good.
