1 sarrot, grated or chopped
Dressing Ingredients:
2 limes, juiced

1/2 tsp basil
1 tsp celery seed
1/4 cup vinegar ( apple cider or light vinegar)

Tips
Jimca is also known as celery root. Although it has very little flavor on its own, it packs nutrition, and colorful texture in this crowd pleasing recipe. It can be challenging to peel, so I recommend cutting it in half and using a vegetable peeler. It’s also fun to slice into small sticks, which are great for dips like hummus or veggie dip. It’s sure to be a huge hit however prepared, but Jicama slaw is an E4M Fan Fave! Enjoy 😉
