Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 tablespoon honey, such as wildflower
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large jicama (1 to 1 1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into thin matchsticks
1 large carrot, peeled and cut into thin matchsticks
1 Honeycrisp apple, cut into thin matchsticks
1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, parsley, honey and salt. Add the jicama, carrots, apple and sesame seeds. Toss well to coat everything in the dressing. Let the salad sit for 30 minutes at room temperature to allow the flavors to combine and the vegetables to soften slightly.

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I substituted sunflower seeds in the dressing. It was still delicious!

I found the salad to be a bit bland. I think it could use a little more salt and pepper.

The dressing is a bit too sweet for my taste, but the salad is otherwise delicious.

This salad was a delightful surprise! I love jicama, but I had never thought to use it in a salad before. The combination of sweet, crunchy jicama with the tangy dressing was perfect.
