Rutabagas are one of those root vegetables that always get passed up at the grocery store. Surprisingly, this versatile veggie can be prepared pretty much as you would a potato. You can mash it, add it to a stew, make a soup, fry it, or in this case, bake it. Baked rutabaga fries are easy and quick to prepare. The texture is similar to potatoes but with a slightly different taste that you have to try. They’ll go great with your favorite burger or on their own as a unique but very tasty snack. I bet you’ll enjoy them as much as I do!
