“These Tacos de Jicama are served inside sliced jicama, a crunchy root vegetable, high in vitamin C and fiber and low in calorie,” says Cathy Shyne, executive chef at Tortilla Republic. “The combination of shrimp, tomatoes, avocados, and onions is delicious and hearty, so you'll feel full without consuming naked calories.”
