Mexican Jicama Fruit Salad image

My husband is on a strict diet, no sugar, no fat, no red meat. This was developed for taste, crunch and eye appeal. I have used canned pears when fresh were not available. This is an original recipe. Quick to fix and satisfying.

Categories     Berries

Time 1h10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb jicama
2 fresh pears or 6 ounces pear halves in natural juice
20 -25 seedless grapes
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 (1 g) packets Splenda sugar substitute
1/4 cup fat-free half-and-half
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Peel jicama and pears. Core pears if using fresh or drain & pat dry with paper towels if using canned.
  • Cut into julienne strips. Cut grapes in half. Place jicama, pears and grapes in medium serving bowl.
  • Sprinkle with lemon juice. Stir gently.
  • Add Splenda, fat free half & half and cinnamon. Gently stir until well blended. Cover and chill 1 to 4 hours( I stir once during the chilling).
  • Before serving, stir. You may serve in individual bowls or drain the sweet dressing from the jicama/fruit and serve on plates with lettuce leafs for the base. Jicama is juicy, full of water and also crunchy so there will be dressing to eat with a spoon.
