Crispy Parsnip Fries

14 Nov Crispy Parsnip Fries

Meet your new favorite side dish! I often forget about parsnips and how much I enjoy them. These crispy baked parsnip fries are easy to make and so satisfying! Parsnips look like white carrots, but they have a nuttier flavor and in my opinion are WAY TASTIER.
