Cranberry-Strawberry-Jícama Salad

• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 1/4 cup cranberry-orange relish
• 1 small shallot, peeled and chopped
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 1 large jicama, peeled
• 2 (5-ounce) packages gourmet mixed salad greens
• 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
• 1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries, finely chopped
• 2 large navel oranges, peeled and sectioned (optional)
• Garnish: shaved Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese

1. Process first 8 ingredients in a blender until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides.
2. Cut jicama into cubes, or, if desired, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices, then cut with a 1 1/2-inch star-shaped cutter.
3. Place jicama, salad greens, strawberries, cranberries, and, if desired, orange sections in a large bowl. Drizzle with vinaigrette, and gently toss to coat. Garnish, if desired.
4. NOTE: For testing purposes only, we used Ocean Spray Cran-Fruit Crushed Fruit For Chicken (Cranberry Orange flavor) for the cranberry-orange relish. Look for it near the cranberry sauces in your grocery store.
