I recently found some large parsnips & immediately pounced! I was surprised that some of my friends had never had parsnips & that my Mother despised them. I love them. To me they are kind of like a spicy carrot. What's not to love? If you've never had them roasting is the way to go. You can prep your vegetables early in the day & cover them with plastic wrap in the refrigerator. Then when it's time for dinner you can just put them in the oven.
4 parsnips
2 sweet potatoes 6 garlic coves (unpeeled) 2 TBS olive oil 1 TBS dill weed 1 TBS kosher salt 1 tsp. coarse pepper Peel the sweet potatoes, parsnips & cut into chunks about one inch pieces. Place them on a baking sheet and toss everything together to coat. Bake in a 425 degree oven for 30-35 minutes tossing them half way while cooking. Squeeze the garlic out of their skins & mix it throughout the vegetables I recently found some large parsnips & immediately pounced!

Lulu wants me to fix this and she is begging to plant parsnips this fall!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I'm begging as well. You can't resist both of us. :)
