This mash is very good,DH does not like parnips so left them out, the celeriac is delicious! I used half and half cream (instead of milk)this makes a nice creamy mixture! Served with meatloaf and green beans YUMMY!!

very simple and flexible recipe. I used 1 white sweet potato, 1 sweet potato, pumpkin, 2 potatoes and 3 parsnips and used cream instead of milk. I also cooked them in the microwave. I made it to go with 'really good vegetarian meatloaf' 33921

I used what I believe everyone else used-even amt. of turnip, potatoes, and carrots. Instead of adding salt to the water I cooked the veggies in vegetable broth. Very, very nice, my family isn't a fan of turnip and they didn't even notice it!. Thank You Country Lady!
