A very good recipe. Am always happy to find another good way to use jicama, as it is one of my favorite vegetables! Thnx so much for posting, JenSmith.

I'm a big fan of jicama, so this recipe was a definite attraction for me! A purple onion would have made a nice color presentation, but I opted for a Vadalia instead! Another time I might try half purple & half Valalia, but I DID like the taste of the one I used! Really liked the combo of OJ, lime & coriander! This certainly is a keeper!
