Colorful, healthy, and delicious, this Red, White & Blue Salsa is a perfect appetizer for your July 4th celebrations, or anytime! I was looking for a fun summer appetizer, when I came across this amazing recipe from Scott and Chris over at The Café Sucre Farine.  You can learn more about them here. They’re an adorable couple, and I can’t wait to try many more of their other recipes!!

What is jicama? Jicama is a root vegetable, sometimes called a “Mexican Potato”. However, it tastes very similar to an apple and can be eaten raw. Jicama can usually be found in the produce section of the grocery store, usually near plantains and other Spanish fruits and vegetables.  If you are unable to find any jicama near you, feel free to substitute 1/2 of a peeled green apple for the jicama in this recipe.

For this recipe, I used my Coated Santoku Knife, along with my Rapid-Prep Mandoline:

Juicy mango combined with crispy veggies makes a delicious salsa that can be served with tortilla chips, seafood or tacos!! I have made this Pampered Chef recipe for years and wanted to share it with you ahead of Memorial Day, as it’s so delicious and a wonderful, healthy salsa to serve alongside our other grilling favorites.

What is jicama? Jicama is a root vegetable, sometimes called a “Mexican Potato”. However, it tastes very similar to an apple and can be eaten raw. Jicama can usually be found in the produce section of the grocery store, usually near plantains and other Spanish fruits and vegetables.  If you are unable to find any jicama near you, feel free to substitute 1/2 of a peeled green apple for the jicama in this recipe.

I used my Manual Food Processor, Veggie Wedger and Chili Lime Rub for this recipe:

Manual Food Processor

Our Manual Food Processor can take care of nearly all your chopping and mincing needs, without needing an outlet. Add your ingredients to the bowl and pump the handle for fast salsa, dip, cookie dough, baby food, and tapenade. The more you pump, the finer it cuts! When you’re done, the handle locks into the lid for easy storage in your cabinets.

Guarantee

  • 5-year guarantee

Product Details

  • 5½” (14-cm) diameter
  • 3 cups (750 mL)
  • Includes lid with pump handle, bowl, blade post, and storage lid
  • Pump locks down for easy storage

Veggie Wedger

An Easy-to-Use Vegetable Wedger

With this Veggie Wedger, you’ll get six identically sized fruit or veggie wedges with just one quick motion. It’s perfect for meal prep, salads, and after-school snacks.

Our Veggie Wedger has serrated stainless blades that easily glide through any fruit or veggie that doesn’t have a pit, like potatoes (except sweet potatoes), onions, and citrus. You’ll love how it slices tomatoes without crushing them. Just place the fruit or veggie in the base and push the top down. Voila! You now have perfectly even wedges ready for air frying, salads, or snacks for yourself or your kids. The soft-grip handles let you cut large amounts comfortably, and the nonslip base keeps the Veggie Wedger secure when slicing.

Chili Lime Rub

A Kick of Flavor

This fan favorite has been brought back. It’s a classic combination of chili peppers and tangy lime and is perfect for shrimp, chicken, beef, pork, or fish. Keep some on your bar cart to rim margaritas!
