Product Description: Organic Parsnips are root vegetables, much like carrots. In fact, Organic parsnips look very much like white carrots . They are great for stews and carrot style recipes.
Organic Parsnips are very healthy for you. They contain Vitamin C, Vitamin K, folates, potassium, magnesium and lots of fiber too. They've got 6-10g of carbs per half cup. The range is based on the type and how they're cooked. This is much better than many other veggies, and the nutritional benefit is well worth it! Did you know?
