Jicama Zucchini Salad


Jicama Zucchini Salad has been my new "salad of the week". And it uses a spiralizer. You can't beat that! Everyday Food published this recipe using cucumber instead of zucchini. I chose zucchini because I find it to be a little more filling. I currently have cucumber in the house and will be tempted to try this dish as written.

The Salad:

1-2 zucchini (spiralized)
1/4 jicama (spiralized)
1 tsp honey (or to taste)
fresh lime juice (I use 1/4-1/2 lime depending on the size of my salad.)
salt and chili pepper (to taste)

Mix together and serve!

New Snack: Jicama

My new favorite snack: Jicama! Specifically, I am eating Jicama with freshly squeezed lemon juice, salt, and chili powder.

One 1/2 cup serving has only 23 calories and 3 grams of fiber.

And if my heart desires, a whole jicama is 0-points. Can't beat that!
