INSTRUCTIONS
DRESSING
~ whisk together all dressing ingredients - drizzle half the dressing over
the onions & jicama, refrigerate for at least an hour - just before
serving, remove onioins & jicama from marinada & toss with the lettuce.
Arrange oranges on top and drizzle the remaining dressing over the salad. -
(optional) Sprinkle the nuts on top.
Comment from Sally: Pico de gallo (pee-coh day guy-yoh) translates as the
Bite of the Rooster. I assume that is because the salsa (which merely means
"sauce") called pico de gallo is quite fiery and has a fierce bite to it.
Having never been bitten by a rooster, however, I can only offer this as
conjecture. (grin)
