One Comment on “Jicama Crab Tacos”
I hate when people leave a comment before trying the recipe but I just have to. How ingenious is using a jicama tortilla? I love the ingredients but, if you’re going to call it a “taco,” it has to have some kick. I recommend finely-diced jalapenos as an additional garnish. Nicely done, Whitney.
