INGREDIENTS:

2 T. of my Mint Sauce

1 c. jicama, peeled and cut into strips about 1″ long, as pictured above (or grated if you prefer)

Sprinkle of salt to taste

Splash rice wine vinegar (optional)

DIRECTIONS: Mix up the Mint Sauce recipe and set aside. Cut up jicama and place in bowl large enough to toss easily. Add 2 T. of the mint sauce and toss. Taste to see if you want to add salt. If you prefer your salads tart, add a sprinkle of rice wine vinegar (available in most grocery stores in the Chinese Food section) to the jicama as you toss it. Plate and serve with tomato slices.
