Citrus Tossed Salad
Makes: 6 servings

Ingredients

• 6 torn mixed salad greens

• 1 1/2 cups peeled jicama cut into thin strips
• 1 medium red onion, sliced and separated into ring
• 1/3 cup Citrus Vinaigrette or another flavor vinaigrette

Preparation Instructions

Choose from four fabulous flavors of vinaigrette to add a gourmet touch to this salad. Because orange juice concentrate replaces part of the oil included in a vinaigrette, these vinaigrettes have only 2 g of fat and 34 calories per tablespoon instead of 6 g of fat and calories.

In a large salad bowl combine torn mixed greens, orange or grapefruit sections, jicama, and onion ring. Drizzle with the vinaigrette; toss. Serve at once.

CITRUS VINAIGRETTE: In a screw-top jar combine 3/4 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed; 1/4 cup vinegar; 1/4 cup olive oil; 1/4 cup water; and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Shake well to mix. Cover and chill for up to 1 week. Before using, let stand at room temperature about 15 minutes, then shake well. Makes 1 1/2 cups dressing.

GARLIC-CITRUS VINAIGRETTE: To 1/3 cup Citrus Vinaigrette add 1 medium clove garlic, crushed.

GINGER-CITRUS VINAIGRETTE: To 1/3 cup Citrus Vinaigrette add 1/2 teaspoon grated gingerroot.

HERB-CITRUS VINAIGRETTE: To 1/3 cup Citrus Vinaigrette add 1 teaspoon snipped fresh thyme or basil or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme or basil crushed.
