A vibrant and refreshing salad featuring crisp cucumber and jicama, enhanced with zesty lemon and juicy tomatoes, perfect for a light snack or side dish.
Ingredients
1 whole cucumber
1 cup jicama
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup tomatoes
Method
Begin by using a vegetable peeler to create a striped pattern on the cucumber, leaving some of the green skin intact for color and flavor. Then, cut the cucumber into thin slices.
In a large mixing bowl, toss together the sliced cucumber, crunchy jicama, lemon zest, and a tablespoon of fresh lemon juice, ensuring everything is well combined. Gently fold in the diced tomatoes to complete the salad.
