Mexican Salad With Pomegranate-Lime Dressing image

This salad is so good! I always have to give out the recipe. I used unsweetened bottled pomegranate juice when pomegranates are not in season. Use any salad greens you like. You will really like this!

I wasn't a fan of the jicama in this salad. I think it would be better with a different crunchy vegetable, like celery or carrots.
