Ingredients
Salsa:
- 1 ½ cups jicama, peeled and ¼"-½" diced (about ½ medium jicama)
- 1 ½ cups ripe mango, ¼"-½" diced (about 2 medium mangoes)
- ¼ cup jalapeno, finely diced
- ¼ cup red onion, finely diced
- ¼ cup cilantro, finely chopped
Lime Dressing:
- ¼ cup fresh lime juice (about 2 limes)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime zest
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- To a large bowl, add jicama, mango, jalapeño, red onion, and cilantro. Toss to combine ingredients.
- To a small bowl, add dressing ingredients. Whisk to combine.
- Pour dressing over salsa and toss to combine. Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
- Jicama is a super unique ingredient that doesn't have many good substitutes. It's a root vegetable that tastes kind of like a starchy apple and adds a great crunch to this salsa. Choose a medium jicama with firm flesh and no bruises or blemishes on the skin.
- Choose a ripe mango by gently squeezing the fruit. If it's slightly soft but bounces back, it is ripe and ready to eat. Ripe mangoes will also smell sweet and ready to eat! You can substitute fresh pineapple or peaches for the mango.
- You can add as little or as much jalapeño as you'd like to make the salsa more or less spicy. Every jalapeño varies in spice level so it's better to be cautious and add more later if you want more spice! If you don't want any spice at all, you can substitute bell peppers.
- Letting the salsa sit for at least 1 hour is essential to let all the flavors marry. A few hours is even better!
