Jicama Salad

Submitted by Julie in TX

"This is another recipe from The Mansion on Turtle Creek in Dallas. It is a recipe created by chef Dean Fearing and is Southwest cuisine at it's best. The recipe calls for cold-pressed peanut oil. I make it with canola because it's easier to find and it's healthier."

A nice summer salad loaded with vegetables. The peanut oil was cut in half and fresh lime juice used. This was served with recipe #2903.
