The New World Chopped Salad (page 301) calls for 1 cup of cubed jicama. But I could not find jicama in my local organic store. I went on line to find a good substitution and found that white turnip is sometimes used instead of jicama. This salad has many delicious ingredients in it including cucumber, avocado, corn and pepitas. It is a wonderful cooling summer salad with lots of complex flavors. The tomato is not part of the recipe, I just added one sliced cherry tomato for color.
