Mango-Jicama Salad with Cilantro Dressing

I found this recipe in a Williams-Sonoma cookbook. It is SO delicious! I hope you enjoy it! The cilantro dressing is good on any salad!

½ C. minced red onion (soaked in cold water for 15 minutes and drained)
6 C. mango, peeled and cut into ½-inch dice (about 5 mangoes)
4 C. jicama, peeled and cut into ½-inch dice (1 small jicama)
½ t. sea salt
¼ t. ground black pepper (optional)

Combine ingredients in large bowl. When ready to serve, toss well with dressing as desired. Garnish with light dusting of chili powder.

Dressing:
6 T. fresh cilantro, chopped
¼ C. plus 2 t. extra-virgin olive oil
3 T. fresh lime juice
3 T. fresh orange juice
4 t. honey (1 T. plus 1 t.)
¼ t. chili powder
½ t. sea salt

Combine in food processor or blender and process until a smooth dressing forms, about 15 seconds.

Yield: 6-8 servings
