Parsnips. I want to make some thing with parsnips for a side dish tonight. Any creative yet healthy-ish ideas. I am grilling a flat iron stea

Earlier in the winter, I thinly sliced parsnips, tossed them in coconut oil and light salt and roasted them at 350. They came out so fragrant and delicious.

My mom 's go-to for root vegetables done quick and simple was to peel, grate and toss with salt & pepper, then bake covered in 350 oven for 30 min or until tender and fragrant. Especially good with mixed root vegetable--carrots, parsnips, rutabagas. Surprisingly delicious!

I like to roast mine with carrots and onions. I drizzle them with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper and thyme before placing them in the oven.
