Tender Fajita Jicama Hash
I've been trying to get back into a paleo, or mostly grain free diet lately to help me get back on track losing weight and keep my autoimmune issues controlled. It's helped quite a bit so far- but I'm starting to feel the craving for certain foods already! The other day, I really wanted fajitas- and hash browns. I know, weird combination- but it sounded delicious! So I improvised and made this delicious stir fry Paleo Jicama Hash which I actually think is far tastier than my original idea!
If you've never had jicama, it is a root vegetable that really tastes incredibly different raw than it does cooked. For this dish, we're looking for a rich, buttery flavor similar to hash browns- and jicama is a fantastic low carb substitute! A jicama root looks a lot like a rounder turnip, and the skin is inedible. Be sure to remove the skin before cooking. I'm using a Paderno Veggie Slicer to cut my jicama- but you could use a veggie peeler or mandoline.
Tips and Tricks
- Jicama is questionable to paleo purists- but it contains very few carbs, and most paleo diet gurus agree jicama isnt a superfood, but it wont derail you, either. It's great when used as a potato substitute from time to time- so don't fret if you don't see it on your approved foods list.
- One note of caution- if you're not used to eating a ton of fiber, jicama might send you to the bathroom. Increase the meat and peppers when making this dish, and save more for later. If you're used to eating a ton of veggies and fiber daily, you should be just fine.
