I never ate parsnips before, but my CSA handed me 4 lbs this week. Made this recipe for dinner tonight with pork chops and Waldorf Salad. I i did use only half the butter, and that worked just fine. This recipe meets all my criteria....easy, healthy and delicious--and no question I will be making it again.

This was my second time cooking with parsnips (Zaar is great to try out new foods!!) and my first time roasting carrots! This was DELICIOUS!! The glaze was perfect - added just a touch of sweetness! Thanks Kit!

Love this recipe. Once again, Kittencal has blessed our table with a wonderful recipe. This turned out so good. I made it exactly the way the recipe instructed and it was perfect. I think this recipe could be used on a lot of different veggie combos and it would turn out great. The honey, butter and balsamic vinegar combination is what m<br/>akes this such a stand out!!! Thank you Kitten!!!!

I added grated fresh ginger and cayenne pepper to taste to the butter sauce. It is phenomenal.
