Watermelon Jicama Salad

5 years ago
Kirstin Nussgruber

Jicama is actually the underground tuber of a legume, and looks a bit like a turnip painted beige. After peeling, it reveals a crunchy, ivory flesh that tastes slightly sweet, and is just as addictive as watermelon. It also rivals watermelon for its water content, being made up of almost 90% water, thus a low caloric food. It is a so-called pre-biotic food, high in inulin, and thus excellent as food for your healthy gut bacteria.
