Parsnips are one vegetable that I never tried until now. I guess the sound of it didn't appease me. But, in reality, they are really good! Who knew? They are similar to carrots (never even knew what they looked like until now either) but they are a little sweeter. And, when roasted like they are in this recipe, it just brings out the sweetness that much more. My children are NOT veggie eaters. They tried them last night and loved them. They chose them over the potato/sweet potato fries!
Roasted Parsnip Fries
5-6 medium parsnips
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
sea salt
Pre-heat oven to 400F degrees. Then wash parsnips, trim ends and slice into long, thin strips. Place on a baking sheet and massage olive oil onto parsnips so that each slice is well coated. Sprinkle with sea salt. Place into oven for 30-35 minutes until parsnips are browned and the ends are crunchy. Remove from oven. Sprinkle with an additional dash of sea salt, if you like.
