Mona Lisa Vito: [Vinny looks at her funny] What?
Vinny Gambini: Nothing. You stick out like a sore thumb around here.
Mona Lisa Vito: Me? What about you?
Vinny Gambini: I fit in better than you. At least I'm wearing cowboy boots.
Mona Lisa Vito: Oh yeah, you blend.

This recipe sounds great!
This sounds delicious. Love the quote, that's one of my favorite movies. You could have used "I'm worried about the yoots" lol Kat
mmm. Sounds really good!
We watched My Cousin Vinny the other night~ I always laugh~ the salad sounds good too :-)
I loved "My Cousin Vinny". What a classic show.
Loved your recipe although I must confess I don't think I've ever had jicama.
Wow, that's the second time I've seen My Cousin Vinny quoted in the last 2 days. Weird!
it looks great.
That sounds really good! I think the jicama would add some good crunch.
Yes, this is a yummy recipe, made it a week or so ago! Added tomatoes to it and left out only the jicama. Thinking a some sliced corn chips (like the restaurants do)would be a good addition too.
I love that movie...one of my all time favorites ---great Y post ...bkm
I just loved My Cousin Vinny ... what a funny funny movie ...
That quote from MY COUSIN VINNY is a classic!
What a great quote and super recipe. I am always on the lookout for new recipes!
That was such a good movie! I haven't seen it in years. Thanks for the reminder. I'll have to look for it.
Thanks for sharing! I am going to tag this recipe to try out one evening!
Thanks for your comment on my Tour de France post today! Are you and your hubby cyclists or just like watching? I got pushed off the road last night by an SUV! I couldn't believe it! First time that's happened!!

you saved me! i am headed to a picnic tomorrow night and have had the darndest time deciding what to bring. this salad will definitely do it.
merci!
Erm... I hate to show my ignorance, but I had to Google jicama? I've definitely never eaten it.
What a totally fun stop on our little journey through Alphabe-Thursday's Letter "Y"!
That is one of my favorite movies. Ever. If I am down that is the first movie I yank out. And even though I know it by heart that is one of my favorite lines!
Your recipe sounds perfect. Maybe you could line your cowboy hat with saran wrap and serve it inside. Sounds perfect to me!
Thanks for this smile!
Yippee i-o-kay - ay!
Hmmm.... That was supposed to sound like a cowboy word but it might not have translated as well from the inside of my head to the outside!
Thank you for linking!
A+
I have never seen a recipe like that - would be great to serve at a picnic.
This will be on my favs list tomorrow morning
