New Food Of The Week...

This week's challenge food:  PARSNIPS
Unpeeled

I'm having fun trying something new every week.  However, parsnips are going on the list of things i'm not super crazy about.  I peeled, sliced, and boiled them until they were fork tender, then mashed them up with a tablespoon of butter and lots of slices to eat as a side dish with some garlic mustard salmon.  The salmon was excellent, but I'm not really a fan of the parsnips.  I was hoping they would be a decent substitute for mashed potatoes, but they were sweeter, and a weird texture, and just not at all what I was hoping for.  Oh well, they can't all be successes!
