Garlic Parsnip Puree

Garlic Parsnip Puree

adapted from Food Network Magazine November 2016

This sweet smooth puree is so good you won't even miss your mashed potatoes.

Makes 4 servings                                                    1 WW pp / serving
2/3 cup fat free half and half
1/3 cup water
1 lb. parsnips, peeled and sliced
2 garlic cloves, sliced
1 Tbsp. Parkay cooking oil spray
2/3 tsp. Kosher salt

1. Put all ingredients in a pot and bring to a boil.
2. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until the parsnips are soft, about 8 minutes.
3. Drain the parsnips, reserving all of the cooking liquid.
4. Transfer parsnips to a food processor or blender
5. Puree with enough of the cooking liquid until it is smooth and to your desired consistency. (I use almost all of it.)

Enjoy!
