Recipe: Root Vegetable Chunky Fries with Cilantro Mayo

Who doesn’t like fries? Even better when you have a delicious dipping sauce and the fries are roasted – not fried!

These are ridiculously easy to make. Find your favorite – or perhaps as yet untried – winter root veggies: parsnips, rutabaga, carrots, and sweet potatoes. Cut them into french-fry shapes, toss them with some olive oil, paprika, salt and pepper.  Throw them in the oven at 450 for 45-60 minutes.  Serve them with the following delicious Cilantro Mayo dipping sauce and just enjoy!  :)

Cilantro Mayo Dipping Sauce

Ingredients:

  • one large bunch of cilantro, chopped (use mostly leaves)
  • 1/4 – 1/2 c. mayonnaise
  • Juice from one lemon or lime
  • salt and pepper

Put all ingredients into a small food processor and whirl until blended.  Dip veggies in and love them.
