This is a colorful root vegetable side packed with nutritional value and fiber. Came up with this side dish for a winter pork dinner. Its a great way to get folks to try parsnips, even kids like this one. Ingredients:
1/2 lb about 3 average parsnip |
1/2 lb about 1 large yam |
1 tablespoon melted margarine or 1 tablespoon oleo |
1/3 cup orange juice |
1/2 teaspoon orange zest |
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
Directions:
1. Peel and slice the parsnips into 1/8” rounds.
2. Peel and slice the yam into 1/8” pieces, similar in size to the parsnips (as possible).
3. Layer the yams and parsnips. For a pretty presentation, try alternating color rows of each.
4. In a measuring cup, make a glaze out of the oleo, OJ, zest, cinnamon and sugar. Mix until well dissolved. Drizzle the glaze over the yam/parsnip mix – cover and bake 350 for 40-45 minutes.
