I have enjoyed this salsa with slices of jalapeno - it is a great way to change up an avocado.

I would substitute fresh lemon juice insted of vinegar for the acid and sprinkle on some good chili power for a little zing. thinly diced serrano for the more hearty.

would be great over both seafood and grilled chicken.

I liked the lime juice better than the vinegar, so I'm sure the lemon juice would be good too.

I've had it several times over chicken done on the George Foreman. I'm sure truly grilled chicken would be great with this.

I am giving it a try tonight but am adding Kale and yes, using lemon juice. I am not nearly as big vinegar used as lemon or limes.

Another little twist that I'll have to try - using it as a topping for a salad. I bet that was good. I have yet to try kale raw, but I'm going to pretty soon.

It was so good I am taking it to a Bridge luncheon on the 18th. I would add a jalapeno but a couple of the wussies in our group think bell peppers are hot...

I use lemon on everything because we grew up with a large lemon tree in the back. I use lime for a proper margarita. That is about it.

This has been a summer side dish in our house for quite a while. But with some minced jalapenos and lime juice instead of vinegar. In addition to salmon & chicken thighs, we'll serve it alongside grilled pork tenderloin.

Mango, jicama, purple onion, lime juice not lemon. Marinate in fridge overnight.

Pico de gallo or Tapatio is fantasic over the top if you like spicy.

Pinapple is also another good fruit for this salad as well.

I'll give it a try on pork tenderloin, sounds good!

I've never had jicama, but from what I understand, it really doesn't have a distinctive taste but does add a crunch factor. I'll have to look for jicama next time I go shopping, not sure how easy it will be for me to find it around here. The last time that I asked for something a tiny bit out of the ordinary...polenta...they looked at me like I was an alien .
