Parsnips are not fattening at all.
In fact they are packed with nutrients.
The parsnip is richer in vitamins and minerals than its close relative the carrot. It is particularly rich in potassium with 600 mg per 100 g. The parsnip is also a good source of dietary fiber. 100 g of parsnip contains 55 calories (230 kJ) energy.

Vegetables are not fattening unless cooking in oil, or if you add something to them. The small amount of fat vegetables have in them is healthy for you.
Frozen vegetables are not more fattening because they are frozen, they are frozen to keep the nutrients in them for longer.

The parsnil, like the potato are not fatting by themselves. It's what we add to them that enchances their taste and caloric intake.
A raw average parship = 100 calories
A raw med potato = 200 calories
