I've only used them in salads but some of my Tex-Mex friends used to
cook them like turnips.

Here's URL to a recipe that I've used in the past that was fairly good.
Be aware that jicama is an acquired taste, at least in my family. I grew
a patch of them one year and then no one wanted to eat them but me.
