So this recipe made me have a few doubts but I decided to try it anyway. I was PLEASANTLY surprised it was de-lichh-ious. Perfect amount of crunch, sweetness, savoriness, and HEALTHY HEALTHY HEALTHY!! I've never made anything with jicama before so I wasn't sure how that would add to the mix but it taste like a milder apple and added the perfect texture & flavor.
1/3cp Chickpeas (rinsed and drained)
1/3cp Kidney beans (R&D)
1/4cp Shredded Carrots
1/4cp Chopped Jicama (I peeled off the outer skin)
1/4cp Chopped Apple
1/4cp Sliced Red bell pepper
1tbs Sliced Celery
1/4cp Chopped Cucumber
1Tbs Pumpkin Seeds
Dressing:
1/2 Lemon Juice
2tsp Olive Oil
1Tbs Red Wine Vinegar
1tsp Ground Cumin
pinch Salt & Pepper
Mix all Vegetables,fruit & Beans together. Whisk together all Dressing ingredients and drizzle on salad! Enjoy
**I didn't follow the measurements as per the recipe. I added a can of each bean and DICED up whole amounts of all vegetables/fruits, grated the carrots, equaling about 1cup-1.5cups of each. It turned out delicious! Heather face& Kristen, I thought of you! :) You must try!
mmmm . . . will try post haste!!
