JICAMA TURKEY SALAD



Jicama Turkey Salad image

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.

SUNNY DAY JICAMA-ORANGE SALAD



Sunny Day Jicama-Orange Salad image

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.
