New Favorite Food


Ok so this friend of mine from PA school got me hooked on this new veggie, jicama and I absolutely love it. It is really good for you too! It is full of Vitamin C, fiber and even has some protein in it! Since it is similar to a potato you would think that it is really starchy, which it does have some carbs but is not terrible. I just cut it up and eat it raw and its delish!!

Tips on how to pick it: Look in the veggie area of the store and try to find small to medium sized ones that are firm and dont have any mushy spots. Then you just peal the outside off and cute into little sticks and you got yourself a tasty and healthy snack. Not to mention its super easy!

So for those of you that have never tired jicama I would highly recommend it.
