Ingredients:

Serving

1 large jicama, peeled
2 large beets, trimmed and peeled
2 large carrots, peeled and cut into 3-inch lengths
1 (284 ml) can mandarin orange segments (believe that's about a 10 oz tin)
2 limes
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp fresh cilantro, finely chopped
salt
pepper
1/4 cup unsalted peanuts, coarsely chopped

Directions:

Julienne the jicama, beets, and carrots. Mix together in a large bowl.
Drain the mandarin oranges, reserving liquid. Add the orange segments to the jicama mixture.
Remove the zest of 1 lime and set aside. Juice the limes, which should yield about 3 tablespoons Whisk up the lime juice and the zest with 1/4 cup of the mandarin orange liquid. While whisking, drizzle in the oil to make smooth vinaigrette. You could get away with a little less oil here if that's a concern. Check the flavour of the vinaigrette; if it's too sour for your tastes, add a little honey or agave nectar to take the lime edge off.
Pour the vinaigrette over jicama mixture. Add in the cilantro and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Transfer the salad to a platter or serving bowl and sprinkle with the peanuts.
