Cauliflower & Parsnip Puree

"This is a very tasty replacement for mashed potatoes. My boyfriend was absolutely shocked when I told him what the ingredients were and then he asked for seconds. He even commented that he guessed that giving up mashed potatoes would be ok with him if he could have this instead. Oh, did I mention that he's a meat & potato man from Texas? High praise, indeed."

  1. too much parsnip for us, DH complained about parsnips and horseradish taste. I wonder if it was because my head of cauliflower was small. I picked this recipe because we were trying to use up vegetables in the fridge before leaving for Thanksgiving trip. I tried to doctor it up with some Braggs amino and feta. consistency was not bad, the dog loved to leftovers
