jicama, avocado and grapefruit salad

I guess the name of this salad says it all. Jicama suddenly appeared in my local supermarket. I snapped it up, looking forward to enjoying it's crunchy, juicy sweetness. Jicama doesn't have much flavor; the crunch is the draw. Combining it with a luscious ripe avocado and pink grapefruit slices brought out the best in all the ingredients. I used a mustardy vinaigrette for the dressing. The flavors and textures were wonderful. Try this simple, refreshing salad.
