    Smashed Potatoes and Parsnips with Garlic Olive Oil

    1
    By Alisa Fleming on November 24, 2015 Dairy-Free Recipes, Sides

    I’ve never been a creamy mashed potatoes kind of gal, so I was elated to discover chunky smashed potatoes years ago … probably around the same time I first tried parsnips. If you haven’t tried parsnips yet, they’re a must this season! Parsnips are like a mild carrot, lighter in both color and sweetness and even a bit softer when cooked. Not sold yet? Well, these smashed potatoes and parsnips are not only seasoned with fresh herbs, they’re also flavored with an easy, homemade garlic olive oil that can be made while the main dish roasts.

    These amazing smashed potatoes are spiked with lightly sweet parsnips and enriched with an easy, homemade garlic olive oil. Vegan, gluten-free recipe. Perfect for Thanksgiving, Easter or your everyday dinner rotation!This smashed potatoes and parsnips recipe (complete with homemade garlic olive oil!) was shared with us by AboutOliveOil.org.
