Mock Applesauce

  • I got this from another website and haven't tried it yet, but it looks good!

    Ingredients:
    1 med jicama
    3 tbsp Splenda
    Juice of 1 Lemon
    1/2 - 3/4 cup water
    3/4 - 1 tsp cinnamon

    How to Prepare:

    Peel jicama. Chop into 1/2 chunks. Place all ingredients into saucepan and cook over med heat till jicama is translucent. I was too impatient to wait and see if the jicama broke down like apples so I placed everything in the blender (food processor can be used) and blend to desired consistency*. More water may be needed.

    Enjoy your "fruit"!

    *Be careful when blending or processing hot foods.

  • Nice idea. Thanks!

    One could use stevia instead of Splenda for sweetening so as not to be ingesting chlorocarbons.
