Raw vegan version utilizes hearts of palm along with cherry tomatoes, mango, spinach and a burst of fresh lime. Serve it up in lettuce leaves or fresh, juicy jicama tortillas for your next taco night.

Jicama Garlic Chili Cheese Fries
It’s Monday, and Mondays call for simple, rewarding recipes. What better way to deal with Monday than with some spicy, garlic-y chili cheese fries? Raw and vegan, of course! Move over potatoes, there’s a new fry in town, and its name is jicama.
These certainly aren’t your every day fries (after all, they aren’t even fried). But they certainly do the job well. The jicama takes the place of potatoes, while nutritional yeast takes over for cheese. Of course, you can adjust the spices and herbs to your heart’s content, making it more or less spicy as is your discretion.
Great for snacking and for sharing. And, unlike conventional fries, these chili cheese fries will actually nourish you, rather than punish you!
Jicama, Pineapple and Mango Pickles
These mango pickles will have you wanting to take a trip to Mauritius. Sour, flavorful, and exquisitely interesting. Mauritius has it’s own unique style of pickle, so get ready, gastronauts! Unlike other sorts of pickles, these are meant to be enjoyed pretty quickly. They are quick to make but will only keep for a few days! So you’ll have to get right to it!
