Field Salad with Strawberries and Jicama

Ingredients

8 cups torn curly lettuce (escarole, endive, red leaf, radicchio, Boston)
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1 cup sliced jicama or Granny Smith apple
1 cup sliced strawberries
1/4 cup almond slices, toasted*
Strawberry vinegar or balsamic vinegar (optional)

Directions
Combine all ingredients and toss with strawberry vinegar or balsamic vinegar. If using balsamic, place on greens first and then add jicama or apples so they do not turn brown from the vinegar.

*To toast nuts, place them under broiler just until lightly browned and fragrant. This takes just a couple of minutes, so watch them carefully!
