This delicious, 10-minute salad is both crunchy and sweet. It's perfect for picnics, barbecues, and for topping pulled pork sandwiches. Or it's delicious enough to enjoy all on its own as a light lunch. You also get to show off your chopping skills by julienning the jicama, pear, apple, and onion. Simply toss with raspberry vinegar, olive oil, and a little salt and pepper. It's the perfect make-ahead salad since it has to hang out in the fridge for about an hour to give all the flavors a chance to get to know each other. For a more substantial meal, you can serve on a bed of greens.
