I just made these for DW and I. I love root vegetables, but she is a picky eater and always claimed to hate them. Once the parsnips looked like fries, she was sold. Probably works really well with kids who won't try vegetables too. Now if I could only make lamb look like cheetos.....

Made this with turnips as well, and everyone loved it. I was a parsnip newbie but now I am a fan!

Tasty fries. I did half the recipe and we got enough for me, DH and DS. I omitted the nutmeg cause I don't like it. 25 minutes was perfect. Thanks Suzie. Made for Alphabet chef game
