Jicama and Tropical Fruit Salad image

Jicama [HEE-kah-mah], also called a Mexican turnip or Mexican potato, is a starchy root vegetable you can eat raw. It soaks up the flavor of the fruits in this salad and still keeps its crunch.

I added some grilled shrimp to this salad and it was amazing! The shrimp added a nice protein boost and made the salad even more satisfying.

This is a great salad to make ahead of time, as the flavors meld together nicely. I like to make it the night before and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight.
