Potatoes aren’t the only things you can bake up into fries.  Sweet potatoes (of course), parsnips, carrots, and rutabagas all make delicious simple oven fries.  Don’t be afraid of the parsnips and rutabagas in this recipe.  When roasted, they become nice and sweet.  I hope you enjoy this as much as we do!
