Jicama mama

While at the grocery store I noticed a new for me produce, that claimed to be a fruit: Jicama.

Curious, as always, I didnt resist buying it.

Nutritionally: It is very low in Saturated Fat, Cholesterol and Sodium.

It is a good source of Potassium, and a VERY good source of Dietary Fiber and Vitamin C.☺

here's more nutritional info - great for those who are counting their calories

Often paired with chilli powder, cilantro, ginger, lemon, lime, oranges, red onion, salsa, sesame oil, soy sauce.

I stuck it in my yday's salad, but first, of course, tried separately. It's delicious! I could eat it by itself all day long. A cross between a pear and a water chestnut. I give it a 5 out of 5.

If you cut it in a certain way it could pass for raw fries!☺

Pair jicama with lime juice and cayenne pepper and you won't find any more delicious food for weight loss (may be I should invent my diet)

Another idea, use jicama as your substitute for chips and dip it in salsa or guacamole.
