Mock Stewed Cinnamon Apples (Low Carb)
-= Ingredients =-
1 jicama
1 diet cream soda
2 -3 Tbsp butter
2 tablespoons cinnamon
1 pkt diet apple cider mix
juice ; from 1/2 lemon
1 cup water
pinch ; salt
-= Instructions =-
Peel jicama and slice into bite-sized pieces. Melt butter in skillet and add jicama slices and diet cream soda, cinamon, lemon juice, and pinch of salt. Stir and let this cook down over low heat until most of moisture is evaporated. Add water and cook down again until thick. The jicama will not get as tender as apples, but you cannot tell difference in taste. You could use this as a side dish for a country-style meal, top with a sweetened crushed nut mixture and bake for a dessert, or serve with lc ice cream or pancakes. If using a medium jicama that makes about 3 cups when sliced, the whole recipe will be 24g carbs total. (51g carbs - 27g fiber)
