So... here's an easy-peasy recipe for jicama fries - great for snacking or as a side dish.
Ingredients:
1 jicama
Coconut oil, melted (enough to cover a skillet with about a ½ inch of oil)
Sea salt to taste
Instructions:
Peel the jicama. Cut in half, and then in slices. Cut the slices into strips (think french fries). Heat the coconut oil in a large heavy skillet until piping hot - when it starts to smoke a little bit and/or "pop." Put in enough of the jicama so that all the pieces can be submerged in the oil (be careful - the oil is HOT!). Let it fry until the jicama turns crispy and brown, stirring occasionally, around 5-10 minutes (depends on how thinly you sliced your jicama). When they are crisped to your satisfaction, fish them out with a slotted spoon or spatula and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle with salt to taste. Add more jicama to the oil and repeat the process till you're finished!

So, is this a limited or unlimited food? I've never heard of jicama but I'm searching for new things to eat on this diet.
Rose - no limits on jicama! Enjoy! :-)
That's great! And can the oil be re0used afterwards or do I need to throw it out?
Rose - Umm... I think I would throw it out. It gets kind of brown and nasty looking when you're done!
First of all, congratulations on creating a very interesting blog on Candida. I’m reaching out to a few Candida bloggers to let you know about an infographic we just created, and I thought it would be a good fit for your readers.
You can see the infographic here:

There is some code below the infographic that you can use to post it to your blog. It’s really easy, completely free and should take only a few seconds. All I ask is that you keep the links to the Candida Store that are included in the code.
Let me know what you think!

I made these tonight and loved them (with enough salt that is). Even my 5 yr old loved them. Thanks for making the candida diet bearable!
