Mixed Greens Salad

Makes 6 1 1/2-cup servings

Pre-washed mixtures of salad greens are available at most supermarkets and natural food stores. These mixes are as flavorful as they are attractive and stand well on their own with just a touch of dressing. Other vegetables can be added for additional flavor and nutrition.

1 red or yellow tomato, chopped
¹/₂ cup peeled and chopped jicama
6 cups pre-washed salad mix
3 tablespoons Fat-Free Salad Dressing
