I saw this idea for Cinco de Mayo and thought it was a great way to get in some healthy snacking. Luckily we had to take something to a cook out anyway, and this was our pick.
Jicama- sweet, crunchy and delicious!
Cinco de Mayo Edible Flag (adapted from Family Fun magazine)
Edamame in the shell
Green pepper strips
Jicama, peeled and cut into strips
Red pepper strips
the bottom of a orange pepper
1 pkg. dry ranch dip seasoning
1- 16 oz carton fat free sour cream
pico de gallo
gaucamole (I used what I had leftover from the other day)
Step 1 Arrange edamame, green pepper strips, jicama sticks, and red pepper strips on a platter as shown, then center a green pepper ring and the bottom of an orange pepper on top.
Step 2 Mix together ranch dip and sour cream.
Step 3 Set out your snack with dips in the same festive colors: green guacamole, white ranch dressing, and red salsa or pico de gallo
I love jicama, but I always forget to buy it! Thanks for the reminder!
