  1. We really loved this citrus salad ~ and the sangria dressing. I only added 1 tablespoon organic canola oil after reading the other review, and I think it was perfect this way. Loved the crunchiness of the jicama. Thanks for posting *Tink ~ another new family favorite! Made for THINK PINK EVENT, October 2010!
     
  2. Very refreshing. Served at breakfast with Mexican eggs. I definitely would have preferred this without the vegetable oil - it really doesn't need it.

Hi! I am happily married with two children, 26 and 12. For nearly 10 years when this site was Recipezaar and then Food.com I hosted several different forums. I enjoyed making, creating, reviewing, and photographing recipes, but what I miss the most are the friendships I made here. I was Food Editor for the Mill Creek View Newspaper in Mill Creek, WA. for about 4 years during that time. Currently I am the office manager at a small mental health clinic. I'm not on this site much anymore, but I do continue to appreciate and respond to all reviews posted to my recipes.
