Do not clean the processor but use the medium shredder blade to grate the peeled jicama and apple. Place the shredded jicama and apple into a bowl. Peel the avocado and cut into bite size chunks.
Peel the orange with a knife removing peel and pith. Holding the orange over the bowl, section with a sharp knife cutting away the surrounding membranes. Cut orange sections in half and toss salad with dressing to taste.
Season with salt and pepper to taste and if desired garnish with any additional mint or cilantro. Serve immediately.
