Spicy Veggie Raw Food “Stir Fry”
The most important raw food recipes that I have in my collection are for quick and easy main dishes that really satisfy. Wanting something a little spicy and a lot flavorful. I threw some ingredients in the food processor. Tasting as I went along, I came up with one of my favorites to date. Starting with the parsnip rice, I threw in a couple more veggies and topped it off with a spicy sauce. It is fun, fast and the flavors are great. Don’t be intimidated by the parsnip rice. The flavor is very mild and when combined with the other ingredients, makes a great meal.
Parsnips are full of vitamin C, have tons of fiber and are high in folic acid. They are a good source of niacin, magnesium, thiamine and potassium. They also have vitamins B6 and E.
Spicy Veggie "Stir Fry"
Rice
- 2 cups Chopped Parsnips
- 2 Carrots
- 1/2 cup Pine Nuts
- 3/4 cup Broccoli, Chopped
- 1/2 cup Mushrooms, sliced
- Finely chop parsnips, carrots, and pine nuts and place in bowl. If you are using a food processor to do this, you will want to do each separately. Combine with chopped broccoli and sliced mushrooms.
- Stir to combine.
Sauce
- 1/4 cup Olive Oil
- 1/3 cup Sun dried Tomatoes (soft)
- 1 teaspoon Chili Peppers (dried)

- Combine all ingredients in food processor, process until well combined.

Will this taste the same with radish? We do not get parsnips here so I have no idea what they taste like! The picture looks amazing!

Radishes, per my experience are quite hot and spicy. Parsnips do not have much flavor. What else can you get?

YUM!! I had this for breakfast today (it was supposed to be dinner, but it looked too good to leave alone). This is such a wonderful addition to my repertoire. I really love the spices you incorporated in this recipe. I am starting a 90 day raw food challenge today and your site was the first place I came. Can’t wait to come to another class! Kat

I love your recipes so much it is usually the first email to be opened.
I especially loved learning about your ‘rice’ dish and tried something
different due to availablity at the time. Rutabaga and turnips also
do very well. The rutabaga has a short ‘shelf life’ tho and goes
bitter in any leftovers. I love this take on raw. You are genius.
