Health Benefits of Parsnip Fries
Parsnip fries are a great alternative option to potato fries which offer different types of nutrition. Parsnips are low in fats and sodium, whereas potato fries are low in sugar, so depending on what your dietary goals or restrictions are that will determine what the most suitable option is for you.
When comparing the calorie content you’ll see that there is good saving with parsnip fries, so if you are purely focusing on calories then this would be the best option for you.
French Fries are typically around 312 calories per 100g
Parsnip Fries are around 75 calories per 100g
The 237 calorie saving would give you the freedom to add a splash of honey/natural sweetener from fruit extract or your favourite herbs and spices. You’ll be saving calories and getting alternative nutrition too.
