Jicama Perogies

This is another recipe from RAWvolution. It's pretty simple and really delicious. It's as easy as slicing jicama very thin on a mandolin slicer and mixing up a batch of cashew cheese in a food processor! A dollop of cheese is placed in the center of a slice, and then another slice of jicama is placed on top. Voila! Raw Perogies!
