What to name this random concoction... I don't know, and I barely even remember what all's in here since I made this a few weeks ago and lots of life has happened since then :) The idea behind this salsa of sorts is really just to combine fresh seasonal southwest flavors, savory & sweet, to then pile high on grilled flank steak, chicken or tortilla chips - how can you go wrong. Mix in your own ideas/herbs, etc, and enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup jicama
- 1 mango
- 1 medium red onion
- 1/2 pint grape tomatoes
- 2 kiwis
- 1 can rinsed black beans
- juice & zest of one lime
- splash of red wine vinegar
- fresh cilantro
- 1 clove garlic
- olive oil
- cayenne or red pepper flakes
- cumin
- salt & pepper to taste
- *optional, lots of fresh avocado!
Dice, quarter, chop up in any 'ol way, the veggies & fruit of your choice. Dress with olive oil, lime juice, cumin, salt & pepper and any other spice/seasoning you choose, remembering the standard 3:1 ratio for dressings: (3 parts oil to 1 part acid/vinegar, in this case, lime juice or red wine vinegar + seasoning). *I would have added heaps of avocado, but I served a deconstructed guacamole the same night, but didn't get a picture before it got eaten :)
