Directions
1.
For salsa, in a mixing bowl combine mango, kiwifruit, green onion, red sweet pepper, ginger, brown sugar, cilantro, lime juice, and ground red pepper. Toss to coat well. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours.
2.
For jicama chips, peel and halve jicama. Cut jicama into 1/4-inch-thick slices with a sharp knife. If desired, cut jicama slices into desired shapes using cookie cutters for the flower shapes. Serve with salsa. Makes about 2 cups salsa (sixteen, 2-tablespoon servings).
