[NEW] Jicama Fries

Jicama has a texture similar to potato with a slightly sweeter flavor, not dissimilar to apple. The nearly neutral flavor pairs well with many spice combinations, so get creative! A little lime juice would pair gorgeously with the chili powder. Or make them a dessert treat with a combination of cinnamon and nutmeg!
