Will this work? I want to try to do something slightly different for Christmas this year, but I do have to feed a lot of people. Small fancy dishes are tough so I tend to do larger things like a large roast vegetable platter. In lieu of the staple mash potatoes, I was thinking of a mashed root vegetable purée. Do parsnips and beets go well together? Should I mix in a potato for some extra body and to keep the cost down? Roast or boil? I like roasted parsnip and beat much better than boiled. But I know the potatoes are usually a problem with that. Any help is appreciated.
I haven't really started checking it yet, but it's a combination I don't remember seeing before.
