This combination is the perfect snack filled with lots of fibre and healthy fats. It’s a fun and delicious way to try a different vegetable and add a little variety into your diet. What is Jicama? It’s a root vegetable traditionally grown in Mexico and Central America. The taste is juicy and crunchy, with a slightly sweet flavour. The taste resembles a cross between a potato and a pear.
