Thank you Sydney Mike for another great dinner! We made this exactly as written with 2 exceptions: cashews for the peanuts and golden raisins instead of dark (and a wee bit more than 1/8 cup ;D ). Jicamas are hard to get where I live; it is a 50 mile drive south or a 75 mile drive east, so we might not have this as often as we would like. But I've practically got my car keys in hand now! Thank you again!

I really liked this combination of fruits & things. I used cashews (lots of cashews!) instead of peanuts because that's what I had on hand. I really liked the raisins and the crunchiness of the jicama. My oranges weren't very juicy, so I added the juice of another one. The spices didn't really suit me, but that's probably personal preference. Reveriewed for the Veg*n Recipe Swap.

I loved this recipe I cut the Jicama into chunks and add the raisins along with the chili and the red pepper flaskes along with the sweetness of the blood orange and navel oranges that I used it was not only delicious it was also beautiful - I tossed a little chopped cilantro on top - thanks Mike awesome (and healthy too LOL) recipe
