If you’re simply roasting or baking jicama fries with minimal oil, here’s a rough estimate for WW points:
- 1 cup of jicama (raw) has about 46 calories and is around 0 WW points (on the Blue, Purple, or Green plans), assuming no oil or added ingredients.
- If you use a small amount of oil (like 1 tsp), that could add roughly 1 WW point for the entire batch.
