Ingredients

• 1 medium (about 1 lb) Jicama
• 2 medium Apple (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
• 3 Celery stalks
• 1 cup Red seedless grapes
• 1 cup Walnuts
• 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the jicama and cut it into matchstick-sized pieces about 2 inches long. Place the jicama into a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Core the apples and cut them into matchsticks similar in size to the jicama. Add the apple slices to the mixing bowl.

Step 3

Thinly slice the celery stalks and add them to the bowl with the jicama and apples.

Step 4

Halve the red seedless grapes and add them to the bowl.

Step 5

Roughly chop the walnuts and toast them lightly in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Let cool and then add them to the salad bowl.

Step 6

In a smaller mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, honey, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to coat everything evenly.

Step 8

Transfer the salad to a serving dish and sprinkle parsley on top, if desired, for garnish.

Step 9

Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving for a colder, crisp texture.
