WHIPPED PARSNIPS WITH ROASTED GARLIC
Parsnips make a great mash to serve as a side dish with a holiday turkey or a winter weeknight roast chicken. These whipped parsnips get a flavour hit from a full head of puréed roasted garlic.

Tip:
To prepare roasted garlic, cut the top 1/4 inch off each garlic head. Place each garlic head on a piece of foil. Drizzle each head with a little canola oil and sprinkle with dried thyme. Twist foil around each head to enclose completely. Bake at 350°F until soft, about 30 - 45 minutes. Squeeze softened garlic out of skins and purée. Roasted garlic purée may be frozen, packaged in multiple layers, for up to 1 month.
