Marinate Water chestnuts in soy sauce over night. Wrap them in a half slice of turkey bacon,,slide a toothpick through them to hold the bacon on and bake for about 15-20 minutes in 400 degree oven. Makes a healthy snack or great for a party.

I read.."Chestnuts also have the Heart Foundation tick of approval"

You could probably use center-cut bacon too, it's almost as good for you as turkey bacon (and so much yummier!). I'd like to try this.

The original recipe calls for plain pork bacon,,you want some fat on there...yes,,it's yummier.lol

Jicama is supposed to be a healthier alternative to water chestnuts..... could you use them instead? I've never cooked with either but love the 'crunch' of it.

Never tried Jicama..give it a try! and let me know
