The only vegetable that I like is broccoli...

I am in the same boat. Try Jicama apple fries. Simply slice jicama like french fries, pan fry in olive oil. WHile they are still hot, shake them in a bag of spenda and cinnamon. It's awesome.

Those sound really good. I always wondered what those were (looked up Jicama and recognized them from my store).

Jicama seem to be a great adaptable veg - I only wish we could buy them in UK

I just googled this to see what it looks like and it looks like potato we really cant get this in england? im gonna be hunting for this now on. Is this acceptable on induction?

-----------------

To be honest i mostly eat salads or califlower (after i discovered califlower mash) its just so easy to make up something to eat with this whether it be chicken wings or omilette.

i did make a moussaka dish last week and was eating it for a few days, like lasagne but you subsitute the pasta for auberine (eggplant). was yummy!

Jicama is on the '2-cup' list aka 'salad veggies'. It is also known as konjak/Japanese yam bean/glucoman. I have never been able to find anyone selling it in UK, so if you do, please let us know!

I have found noodles made from it (called shiratake noodles) in Asian-type convenience stores, but not the actual veg itself.
