Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 jicama - chopped
  • 1 mango - cubed
  • 2 carrots - chopped into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup red onion- finely chopped optional
  • 1 jalapeno- finely chopped
  • 1 cucumber - chopped into small pieces
  • 4-6 sweet peppers or can use one bell pepper- chopped into pieces
  • 10 cherries- sliced so that pits are removed

  • 10 grapes- sliced
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped cilantro
  • 10 mint leaves- finely chopped
  • 2 limes- juice squeezed

  • pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Literally, there is only one instruction for this recipe. Cut the produce as above and even add more varieties if you desire, such as strawberries, corn. Then add the seasonings. That's it.
    I cut them into bite size cubes to slices mostly. You can change the shape of veggies and fruits from cubes to matchsticks or small circles, per your preference.
    But the bottom line is, cut everything (all veggies, fruits), add to a big bowl. Now squeeze the lime juice, add salt, pepper and mix it all with salad tongs.
    Call it done and get relish the freshest salad with best of summer.
  2. Eat the salad on its own for a light meal. Or, pair it as a side with pasta/ soup/ any grilled skewers this summer.
