Mar 31, 2020 · 2 Comments

The best alternative to french fries?  These Crispy Garlic Parsnip Fries!  These root vegetable fries are made from parsnips and seasoned with garlic and salt.  Simple, easy and delicious!  Not to mention, Paleo, Vegan and Whole30 approved.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of "normal" french fries.  You know, the classic fries that are made with white potatoes and either fried (restaurant style) or baked in the oven (home version).

But, there are so many great french fry options.  And I'm not just talking sweet potatoes. 

You can literally turn any vegetable into a fry.  For instance, carrots, zucchini, plantains and parsnips...just to name a few.

But back to these low carb french fries.  THESE fries are made with parsnips, drizzled in avocado oil and seasoned with just garlic and salt.  Simple, easy, no-fuss and delicious!  Plus, lower in carbs that your typical french fries and full of nutrients, minerals and vitamins.

Healthy Paleo French Fries

These healthy fries are:

  • Paleo
  • Vegan
  • Whole30 approved
  • Can fit into a Keto diet
  • Have no added sugar
  • Only made with 4 ingredients

I could eat a whole batch on their own, but they also taste great dipped in anything from mustard to ketchup to mashed avocado.

How to Make Crispy Garlic Parsnip Fries

To make these fries, first preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.  Make sure that one of your oven racks is positioned on the bottom notch - as, these fries are cooked on the bottom oven rack.

Prep the Parsnips

Then, prepare the parsnips by rinsing them and peeling their outer skin.  Cut off the tops of the parsnips.  Then, cut the parsnips into fry shapes.

Season the Parsnips

Place the parsnip fries in a mixing bowl and coat with avocado oil.  Sprinkle with garlic powder and salt, then mix with either a pair of tongs or your hands until well coated.

Bake the Parsnips

Next, spread the seasoned parsnip fries out on a baking sheet.  Make sure none of them are overlapping.

Place them on the bottom rack of your oven and bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes.  Flip, and cook another 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Once they are done cooking, remove from the oven and eat!

Like mentioned earlier, this Paleo side dish can be served with any type of condiment, or eaten alone.  I love dipping these fries in mustard, ketchup or mashed avocado.

These fries would pair well with homemade burgers, chicken strips, eggs, or even eaten alongside a large salad.
