This MexicanJicama Salsa is fresh, crunchy and with only 4 ingredients, it’s super easy to make! It’s the perfect healthy & refreshing salsa!
The first time I had this Jicama Salsa was at La Santisima Gourmet Taco Shop in Phoenix Arizona. It is our favorite Mexican restaurant in the valley since they serve authentic food and we’re all for that!
Before eating this salsa at our favorite restaurant, the only way I used to eat Jicama was sprinkled with chili powder, salt and lots of lime juice! It is the perfect healthy snack in my opinion 😉
Jicama in a salsa?
You may think that Jicama does not sound like a salsa ingredient but it does work! It provides the perfect fresh balance for some of the spicy Mexican spices in savory dishes plus its’ crunchiness provides a fun but delicious texture.
To make this salsa all you have to do is chop the jicama, jalapeño, cilantro, then drizzle with lime juice, sprinkle with some salt, and that’s it!
Can’t get easier than that!
