This delicious and juicy, vitamin-rich salad is made with raw vegetables and bursts with vibrant summer colors. All the vegetables—jicama, carrots, napa cabbage, red onion, red bell pepper, and cucumber—are cut into roughly equal-sized strips, tossed with a tart dressing of lime juice, vinegar, olive oil, and spices, and then left to infuse the flavors. The crisp jicama, with its sweet flavor and aroma, adds interesting, refreshing notes to the salad. Serve it with meat dishes or use it as a topping for delicious burgers.
