For a pleasingly offbeat side dish or snack, try this fresh and healthy variation of that old favorite, french fries. Sweet potatoes, turnips and celery root work well in this recipe, too.

Method
Position oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400°F.
Gently toss oil, parsnips, rutabagas, carrots and salt and pepper together in a large bowl.
Transfer vegetables to 2 large baking sheets, arranging them in a single layer. (Arrange vegetables roughly in groups, since their cooking times differ slightly and some may be removed before others.)
Bake, turning often, until golden brown and cooked through, 40 to 60 minutes.
Transfer fries to a large platter and serve.
