Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium (about 1 lb) Jicama
- 2 medium Apple (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 3 Celery stalks
- 1 cup Red seedless grapes
- 1 cup Walnuts
- 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the jicama and cut it into matchstick-sized pieces about 2 inches long. Place the jicama into a large mixing bowl.
Core the apples and cut them into matchsticks similar in size to the jicama. Add the apple slices to the mixing bowl.
Thinly slice the celery stalks and add them to the bowl with the jicama and apples.
Halve the red seedless grapes and add them to the bowl.
Roughly chop the walnuts and toast them lightly in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Let cool and then add them to the salad bowl.
In a smaller mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, honey, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to coat everything evenly.
Transfer the salad to a serving dish and sprinkle parsley on top, if desired, for garnish.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving for a colder, crisp texture.
