Recipe Notes
NOTE: If you don't want to julienne the vegetables, you can probably shred them as well.
Don't have parsnip laying around? Use carrots instead. In fact, the next day, we just used our left overs and threw everything into a salad bowl and ate it that way. This recipe is very versatile. Enjoy!
