For a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes from the serrano peppers.
Adjust the amount of serrano pepper to your spice preference.
If you don't have rice vinegar, white wine vinegar can be used as a substitute.
For the best flavor, use freshly squeezed lime juice.
Make sure to julienne the jicama into even pieces for consistent texture.
If you don't have fresh pineapple, canned pineapple chunks, drained well, can be used.
The salad can be made ahead of time, but add the avocado just before serving to prevent browning.
