One cup (100g) of jicama has only 45 calories, yet almost 6 grams of fiber and almost a full gram of protein! That's a lot per calorie. Jicama is also a great source of Vitamin C. The vitamin C in fruits and veggies is a great antioxidant that helps fight inflammation. Good question Sarah!

The taste kind of reminded me of sugar snap peas. I think I could get my oldest daughter to eat it, but the other 2 might fight me on it. Do you know what nutritional value it has? I mean, is it high in fiber, anti-oxidents, etc.? Thanks! Sarah I just tried Jicama for the 1st time and I really liked it. The taste kind of reminded me of sugar snap peas.

All you need is opposable thumbs! ;) I really like jicama sliced finely in a salad. It tastes like a super crisp, less sweet apple. Yep, raw foods are totally easy.
