Salted Caramel Jicama Salad

Serves 4, per serving: 1/4 lean, 1 1/2 greens, 1.375 condiments, 1 snack

Ingredients:

•3 cups raw jicama, peeled and chopped (6 Greens)

•1 1/2 cups 2% plain Fage Greek yogurt (1 Lean)

•1/2 tsp vanilla extract (1/2 Condiment)

•1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (1 Condiment)

•1 packet stevia (1 Condiment)

•2 tbsp Walden Farms caramel syrup, divided (1 Condiment)

•1/2 tsp coarse sea salt (2 Condiment)

•28 walnut halves (4 Snacks)

Directions:

How to toast walnut halves: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil for easy clean up. Spread walnut on prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 5 to 10 minutes. Frequently stir the nuts to ensure even baking. Nuts are done when they appear a shade darker and smell toasted. Let cool and then chop. Set aside.

Combine chopped jicama, yogurt, vanilla extract, cinnamon, stevia, 1 tbsp caramel syrup and half of the chopped walnuts in a medium bowl. Stir until jicama is evenly coated.

Pour into a serving dish. Drizzle 1 tbsp caramel syrup on top and then top with the other half of walnuts. Sprinkle sea salt on top.

Serve immediately
