• 1/2 lb smoked turkey, diced into 3/8 to 1/4 inch cubes
• 1 small jicama, bulb peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch sticks
• 1 carrot, peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch thick sticks about 1 1/2 inches long
• 1 stalk celery (sliced or diced depending on thickness)
• 2 scallions, sliced green parts only
• 1 granny smith apple, cored and cubed
• 1 cup red seedless grapes, halved
• 1/4 cup golden raisin
• 6 cups red leaf lettuce, washed and torn
• 1/2 cup plain fat-free yogurt
• 3 tbsp apricot preserves
• 4 tsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp dijon mustard
• 1/4 cup toasted slivered almonds (optional)

• 1 You can find smoked turkey at most deli counters. Ask the service person to cut a single piece at the desired thickness. If they do not have smoked turkey try smoked chicken breast or regular turkey breast.
• 2 Combine all salad components except for the lettuce in a large bowl.
• 3 Combine all ingredients for the dressing until well mixed. (It takes a bit to get the preserves to melt into the yogurt).
• 4 Fold dressing into the salad and serve over red leaf lettuce.
• 5 For an additional point per serving garnish the salad with a tablespoon of slivered almonds.
• 6 Enjoy.
