Living Rawesome Day #11 Potato Salad pg. 84 everyday raw
Day #11. I was very tired tonight. I have been studying all day after I got out of work. Jason was hungry after he got home from work, so it was motivation for me to complete the potato salad. This potato salad is made with jicama as a replacement for the potatoes. Many recipes for raw potato salads have jicama as the replacement for potatoes. Before I discovered raw food, I never had jicama, I just knew what they looked like. I think the flavor is bland and the inside texture is very similar to an apple. The outer peel was difficult to peel, but once the jicama was peeled it was easy to cut into it. When I first decided to “go raw” I made another potato salad recipe. Unfortunately it was not so good:( I actually ended up throwing it out. I was hesitant to make this one because of the last episode. This was actually Jason’s choice. I am glad he wanted it because it actually is good. It reminds me of a mexican dish, similar to guacamole but with crunchy jicama. The ingredients are jicama, yellow pepper, celery, rosemary, green olives (I omitted these), avocado, and red onion with the potato salad dressing that I made yesterday. I was pleasantly surprised by the flavors. They taste lovely together. I stuffed celery with the potato salad. It was so delicious, I will make it for my lunch tomorrow. THIS RECIPE WILL NOT GET THROWN OUT, I AM POSITIVE!
