Fennel-Jicama Salad image

This salad is not worth the effort. It's not very flavorful and the texture is not appealing.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I would add some chopped cilantro or red onion for more flavor.

This salad is a bit too tangy for my taste. I would recommend using less lime juice in the dressing.

I'm not a huge fan of fennel, but I really enjoyed this salad. The jicama and lime dressing balance out the fennel flavor perfectly.

The lime dressing is the perfect complement to the fennel and jicama. It's tangy and flavorful, without being overpowering.
