Parsnip "Fries"
Swap parsnips for potatoes in this oven-baked fries recipe and get 5 grams more fiber per serving. Dress these healthy fries up with a side of spicy or garlicky aioli: just mix mayo with Sriracha or roasted garlic (or both!). Source: EatingWell Magazine, January/February 2017

Tips
Tips: For the best texture, pick firm, small to medium parsnips; trim and peel before cooking. Large parsnips have a fibrous, woody core. Trim, peel and quarter them lengthwise, then cut out the core before cooking.
