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.

Steps:
- Peel and cut the potatoes and parsnips into even sized pieces. Put them into a large pot, cover them with cold water, and add a large pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and simmer until the vegetables are fork tender, about 20 to 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small pot gently heat the cream and butter over low heat. When the vegetables are done drain them well. Put the vegetables back into the pot over medium heat. Gently stir them to remove any excess moisture; be careful not to burn them. While the potatoes and parsnips are still warm, press them through a potato ricer or food mill into a bowl. Add the warm cream a little at a time and beat with a wooden spoon until the potatoes are fluffy. Season with salt and pepper and gently stir in the chives. Serve immediately.
CREAMY MASHED TURNIPS AND PARSNIPS (VEGAN)
Mashed potatoes are one of my favorite foods, but it's fun and healthy to sub in different root veggies from time to time. This is one of my favorite combinations so far. The tartness of the turnips is nicely balanced by the sweetness of the parsnips. I enjoy these with Recipe #248055, Recipe #401093, or Recipe #361996.

TURNIP MASHED POTATOES
This is a recipe that I saw Paula Deen make on the Food Network. I love turnips but know of very few ways to cook them. This is super easy and tastes really rich and good! (NOTE: This is the original recipe, but when I make this I peel the potatoes instead of leaving the skins on...)

Tips:
- Select the right vegetables: Choose turnips, potatoes, and parsnips that are firm and free of blemishes. Fresh, organic vegetables will provide the best flavor and texture.
- Peel and chop the vegetables evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly. You can use a food processor or a sharp knife to do this.
- Cook the vegetables in salted water: This will help to draw out their flavor and prevent them from becoming bland. You can also add a bay leaf or two to the water for extra flavor.
- Drain the vegetables thoroughly: Once the vegetables are cooked, drain them well to remove any excess water. This will help to prevent the mash from becoming watery.
- Mash the vegetables until smooth: You can use a potato masher, ricer, or food processor to do this. If you want a smoother mash, you can pass it through a fine-mesh sieve.
- Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, butter, and milk to the mash to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried herbs.
- Serve the mash immediately: Turnip-potato-parsnip mash is best served hot. You can garnish it with chopped parsley or chives.

Turnip-potato-parsnip mash is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
