Mashed Parsnips


Not sure why, but many people look at those odd looking veggies, wonder if they are white carrots or odd shape turnips and do not know how to treat them. Well a simple thing to do which is so much healthier than potatoes is plain simple mashed parsnips. Due to its sweetness kids will actually love it.

INGREDIENTS
5 parsnips
1 tblsp butter
1/2 cup of cream or milk
2 eggs yolks
salt & pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS
  1. Peel the parsnips
  2. Put them in a large pot with water and salt
  3. Let them boil until soft to the fork
  4. Once fully cooked, remove them from the water and mash them as you would the potatoes, add the cream/milk and the butter
  5. Once well mixed, add the egg yolks.
  6. Serve with anything such as a broiled chicken as shown above

Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment. As far as the chicken goes, when it cooks in the crock pot, it will make its own juices. No need to add any liquid.
