Breastfeeding Friendly Maple & Apple Cider Vinegar Cassava Fries

Crispy, golden, and coated in a sticky-sweet glaze, these oven-roasted cassava fries hit that perfect balance of savory and tangy that makes it genuinely hard to stop at just a handful. Cassava is a wonderfully satisfying root vegetable — starchy and hearty — and the two-step process of parboiling before roasting is what gives each fry that tender interior with lightly crisped edges. The glaze comes together from pure maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and coconut aminos, so there's no refined sugar, no soy, and nothing artificial sneaking into the mix. Turmeric and ginger add a gentle warmth to the seasoning without overwhelming the natural sweetness of the cassava, and both are ingredients many nursing parents actively seek out. Coconut oil keeps the whole recipe dairy-free, which matters when you're paying close attention to what goes into your body and, by extension, your baby's. A scatter of fresh parsley at the end brightens everything up and makes the plate look as good as it tastes. These are the kind of fries you can feel genuinely good about reaching for.
