Ingredients
  

  • 10 cups cubed watermelon
  • 5 cups julienned jicama
  • 3 tbsps fresh, chopped mint
  • 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1.5 tsps salt
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar or 1 tablespoon fresh lime zest instead
  • 2 tbsps honey

Instructions
 

  • Cut the watermelon into small cubes. This can be done many ways, but the video above shows my favorite method. I have also julienned the watermelon, and that made for a beautiful salad as well.
  • Julienne the jicama. I do NOT suggest cubing it. Jicama is a nice, subtle touch if added in small bites. However, it can be too much if the bites are too large.
  • Make the dressing by adding the mint, lime juice, salt, vinegar (or lime zest), and honey and mixing.
  • Add all ingredients together and refrigerate to cool. Eat at any time.
