Red White and Blue Salad
I’ve been trying to come up with a festive salad for Memorial Day and 4th of July and instead of my traditional dessert, I decided on a Red White and Blue Salad.
It is easy to make and only has a few ingredients to whip it up in a hurry. You can even use frozen berries. It is almost more of a salsa but chunkier. This is a great side dish or appetizer to bring to any party. But I warn you to get a small bowl for yourself before you serve, it will be gone before you know it.

What a great salad recipe! I love this kind of stuff!
Never heard of a jicama so I google it, it is a yam of types, is it peppery in flavour? I know strawberry and pepper work really well. Found you via Showcase Your Talent Thursday
