Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 c turnips
2 c potatoes
2 c parsnips
4 Tbsp onions
6 oz chicken broth
1/4 c parsley
1/2 tsp nutmeg grated
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. NOTE: I am watching calories so I did NOT use cream or butter. I used a packet of Butter Buds instead and used a little fat free chicken broth instead of cream. It came out beautifully!
  • 2. In a large pan, combine the turnips, potatoes, parsnips, and stock and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the vegetables are fork-tender.
  • 3. Drain and return to the pan. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in another pan and add onion. Saute until translucent. Add the onions, cream, the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter, the parsley and nutmeg to the veggies and mash with a masher until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

I'm not a big fan of turnips, but I really enjoyed this dish. The parsnips and potatoes balanced out the flavor of the turnips.
