It’s Summer time and It’s HOT …Especially in Texas! You can’t go a day without wanting to jump in the pool!!! But since I can’t do that everyday, I have my favorite Summer snack and water detox recipes that can help keep us cool all summer long!
One of my favorite childhood vegetables to eat was Jicama, it’s considered a Mexican turnip and comparable to water chestnuts! My dad use to just peel the skin and slice it in large chunks, I would run inside in between hide and seek and bike rides to snack on it! But I wanted to experiment and come up with a Fruit and Veggie Kabob that included my favorite veggie!
- After all the ingredients is chopped, put one of each onto a mini kabob stick
- Create the sweet and spicy mixture to pour on top! 1 Lime (Sliced and Squeezed Raw Honey Chili Powder - Mix together thoroughly
- Pour Mixture over Kabobs and let chill for 10 mins!
Jicama is so delicious and the big bonus is that its only 50 calories per cup , high in vitamin C and high potassium vegetable!

Another go-to for me during the summer are my favorite detox water recipes! We all know that water intake is super important during the hottest times of the day… but let’s be honest, we can only drink so many plain glasses of water!

Jicama is awesome, a little lime, a little tajin and bam!
Yum! I love jicama + cucumber + chili powder + lime!!!! It’s a winning combination.
From personal experience, I can say the lemon + cucumber + mint water really does fight bloating, so drink up gals!
This looks like a great alternative to watermelon. I’m sure I’ve had it, just can’t remember if it’s sweet or not?
