JICAMA TURKEY SALAD
I adapted this somewhat, but it comes from a recipe card from (I think) our local ShopRite, and was published by Try-Foods International way back in 1995. They recommend turkey breast, but I am a fan of dark meat due to its flavor, and so I suggest you use either, or a mixture of both. I have also cut in half the recommended amount of celery, but please add more if you prefer. If you have fresh dill, use this instead.

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

SUNNY DAY JICAMA-ORANGE SALAD
Posted for ZWT5 from care2.com site. Interesting that it has allspice in it. Notice that you chill the dressing but not necessarily the assembled salad. And it might not taste quite the same without silty, white glowing sand stuck between your toes and the near promise of a turquoise swim, but you can always imagine.
