Move over cauliflower rice, there’s a new veggie in town and it’s parsnips! Bless cauliflower for all of its superpowers to be pretty much transformed into anything but it needs a little break. Parsnips are a root vegetable that look like carrots and also have a similar taste to them. They are a great source of complex carbohydrates. They offer several nutrients like fiber, vitamin C, potassium and folate which are all important for supporting heart health.
