I love sweet and spicy combinations and this fruit salad is one of those great pairings. Salad should chill for about 2 hours before serving so plan ahead.

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

6 small navel oranges
1 red onion, thinly sliced
1 cup jicama, cut into sticks (3 by 1/2 inches)
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
salt, to taste
1 red jalapeno chile, seeded and diced
cayenne pepper
6 cups mixed salad greens, tossed with vinaigrette (optional)

Directions

1
Remove orange sections from membranes.
2
Toss orange slices, onion slices and jicama, sprinkle with cilantro and jalapeno and season with salt and cayenne.
3
Cover and refrigerate the salad for about 2 hours.
4
Serve cold on chilled plates or on a bed of mixed greens that have been tossed with a vinaigrette, such as citrus or balsamic.

This is a peppy salad that I loved. I used a Sprtzer Balsamic Mist as the dressing. For the orange I used a Satsumi orange but the Navel will be livlier in the flavor. Had to use a green Jalapeno but added a bit of sweet red pepper for the color Thanks Cheryl for a lovely Lunch

Definitely wanted to make this, what with the oranges & jicama, but the jalapeno was a bit too much for me so I substituted half a poblano for the latter ingredient! Still it made for a very tasty salad & a keeper of a recipe! Many thanks! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Healthy Choices ABC cooking game]

I made a salad of romaine, raddicho, and spinach leaves with white balsamic and olive oil. This was the best topper I have ever had , sweet, hot, citrus, and crunchy all at the same time. This went well with some grilled shrimp. I will be making this recipe for a long time.
