Open-Faced Jicama Steak Sandwich with Arugula, Red Onion, and Tomato
The kitchen in my home is a place for delighting in food, not fearing it. Cooking has become a pleasure, not a chore. Making a meal shouldn't be intimidating. It should be easy. Food shouldn't be a source of fear. It should be a source of love and a way to care for and nurture yourself and the people you care about.

Sea salt and freshly ground pepper
Four 1/4-inch-thick slices jicama, peeled
