In large bowl, combine lime juice, chili powder and oregano. Whisk in olive oil. Add jicama and toss well. For best flavor, refrigerate 24 hours before serving.

Ingredient notes:

* If you can't get fresh lime juice, I like Nellie & Joe's Key Lime Juice. Don't use RealLime. Eww.

* Mexican oregano is available at ethnic food stores or from Penzeys. It's more pungent than regular oregano.

Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup

This is an adaptation of my favorite slow cooker chicken tortilla soup recipe. If you have the calories to spare, make some tortilla chips in the oven to eat with the soup and top with a bit of sour cream, cheese, avocado and anything else you like! It is very flavorful on it's own, though. Be sure to use high-quality enchilada sauce, as some brands can be greasy. I like to add other veggies in sometimes, such as carrots and squash.

Tangy. Adding a bit of feta or goat cheese makes a nice accent to the salad. - 8/9/09

Refreshing - key lime juice and chili powder make a great spicy combination with the jicama. The salad makes a great accent side. - 5/28/12

Quick, simple, fresh and tasty. I agree about the lime juice; I've been a big fan of Key Lime for years. It also makes an awesome cheesecake. - 12/6/09
