Very good and refreshing. I have made it without dressing too-just added torn mint and it is sweet as it is with melon being so good right now.

Thanks for checking out my recipe. Jicima is not used in too many recipes but we enjoyed this one...glad you did too.

I cannot wait to make this version of Watermellon Salad. We traditionally us the mint, and mellon, but instead of Jicama, we add Feta and balsamic vinegar and olive oil.
Jicama is said to contain cancer fighting properties. - 5/25/14
