This Jicama Fries recipe makes a crisp & delicious batch of low carb keto fries, a healthier alternative to regular fries. Low carb, keto, paleo, gluten free
Happy happy Labor Day and I hope this finds you doing absolutely no labor and enjoying your friends and family and whatever else floats your boat.
I’ve been enjoying a relaxing weekend that started with a meal at Playground 2.0 which was absolutely delicious, hanging out with some friends, a trip to Raging Waters water park and today I’ll be cooking and hanging out around the house getting ready to go to Atlanta next week!
I’ve been eating a lot of good food this past week and one of my favorite things I’ve had is jicama fries! (Pronounced Hick-a-mah).
I love me some fries. I don’t really know anyone who doesn’t love fries. Something about that golden brown deliciousness dunked in some ranch.
These aren’t your typical crunchy spud potato fries. These are made of jicama. But in my pursuit of turning all the popular most favorite regular recipes into low carb and keto versions, I made these Jicama Fries and I think they’re a real contender.

Ingredients
- 1 Jicama or 1 package Jicama fries from Trader Joe’s (about 2 cups Jicama Fries)

- If using a jicama, remove skin and cut into fry shapes.
