Have you ever tried jicama? It's a delicious crunch, sweet, vegetable that is a welcome addition to most salads. Jicama is low in calories and fat but high in fiber and water content. A dieters friend, jicama can be eaten like a carrot- sliced, in sticks, or chopped into salads.
Look for my Jicama Mint Rainbow Salad Recipe at the end of the post.
I love summer salads because they include lots of local farm fresh produce and interesting summer herbs such as cilantro, basil, dill, parsley, and mint!
Fresh Raw Corn
I love to eat corn cut right off the cob ; it's so sweet
and tender just the way it is;
I never cook it, and I add it to many of my salads!
My salads can be eaten alone or as a starter for dinner.
Why not try one of these super salads this week?

I just made my first salad using mint. I love it. Great use of seasonal veggies. Thanks for sharing this on foodie friday.
ReplyDeleteI miss my mint so much in the winter. It adds a great flavor to everything. Sometimes if I am energetic, I will dry it and use it in omelettes in the winter
