Ingredients
For 4 people ()
Recipe
- 1 large rutabaga or jicama
- salt & pepper to taste
- 4 tablespoon(s) olive oil
- garlic powder to taste
- 1 dash(es) paprika (optional)
Oven Baked Rutabaga or Jicama Fries Directions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees
- Peel waxy skin off rutabaga or jicama with a paring knife or peeler
- Cut large into quarters (carefully), then into "french fry strips"
- Place in large bowl and toss with oil, sea salt and pepper or seasonings of your choice
- Place a flat layer of fries on cookie sheet
- Cooking times may vary depending on consistency desired, typically Rutabaga will need to bake for 20-30 minutes and flip them halfway through (keep watch thin pieces which may burn). Jicama fries cook 30-45 mins.
- Fries will turn brown and get tender - bake longer for crispier texture
- Sprinkle with additional sea salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika (all to taste) and serve hot
- *For Step 1 of the ITG Diet Plan- Rutabaga and Jicama are occasional vegetables*
