1/8 C espresso-flavored balsamic vinegar
1/8 C sunflower oil
A few dashes of nutmeg
3 Tbs fresh basil, chopped
3 Tbs fresh mint, chopped
The rest:
2 C jicama, bite-sized cubed
16-oz container of strawberries, diced
1-1/2 C blueberries
4 kiwis, peeled and diced
2 mangoes, peeled and diced
1 C walnuts, chopped and toasted

And it is for these reasons, that I would never go back to eating or wearing animal products. Ever.
