Delish! The dressing was very flavorful - so we went very easy on it - or it could have been over powering. We love all of the ingredients in this salad so we knew it would be a winner! Thanks for sharing! (I was thinking that some gorgonzola cheese might go good with it...) -
Two word's for ya... Freak'n Great! -
I just got back from cancun mexico and they serve jicama alot down there...I got attached to the stuff so was thrilled to find this recipe...so I made this for my dinner party I was having, it was a big hit.... -
Made this last night and we all really loved it. That bibb lettuce is really tasty. I did change pecans to sunflower seeds to cut the fat content and then left out the poppyseeds. At the end, I sprinkled some grated carrot on that I had leftover from dinner dish. I will be making this often. Thanks for a really nice salad!

Love this salad, and the crunch the jimaca and pecans give to it. Great recipe.
