  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 or 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

Salad

  • 1 cup raspberries
  • 1/2 small jicama, peeled, cut into julienne strips (1 cup)
  • 2 medium green onions, sliced (2 tablespoons)
  • Lime wedges, if desired

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    You will need to purchase 3 limes for 3 tablespoons of juice. To get the most juice from each lime, roll it around on the countertop a few times while applying gentle pressure, or pop it in the microwave for a few seconds.
  • tip 2
    Make the vinaigrette up to a couple of days ahead of time and refrigerate it. Shake before serving.
  • tip 3
    Use a small cookie cutter to cut the jicama into cactus shapes.
