After a conversation with my girlfriends Allison & Natalie about jicama I had a craving to whip up some tuna salad that my sister & I used to live off of during our early post-college days when she managed a restaurant & filled our bellies with fresh food. Jicama if you have never had it is crunchy like and apple but not as sweet. I'd compare it to a love child between an apple and a potato. You really must try it if you never have.
This recipe is inspired by Tossed's tuna salad but I jazzed it up with one of my favorite Trader Joe's products: wasabi mayo.
Read more for the full recipe.
Ingredients:
- 2 cans of tuna in water, drain
- 1/3 cup jicama, chop
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup baby spinach, chiffonade
- 3 tablespoons wasabi mayo
- salt & pepper
- 4 slices sprouted bread, toast
Make it!
- Mix tuna, jicama, cranberries, spinach & mayo together.
- Season with salt & pepper.
- Spread on toasted bread, cut sandwiches in half on the diagonal.
(PS you will definitely have leftover, so top off a salad with it!).
