Parsnip And Roasted Garlic Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Roast the Garlic

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the top off the head of garlic to expose the cloves, drizzle with a bit of olive oil, and wrap it in aluminum foil. Roast in the oven for 30-35 minutes until soft.

2. 2

   Prepare the Parsnips

   While the garlic is roasting, peel and chop the parsnips into bite-sized pieces. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

3. 3

   Roast the Parsnips

   Spread the seasoned parsnips on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and tender.

4. 4

   Make the Pesto

   In a food processor, combine the roasted garlic (squeezed out of the skin), parsley, walnuts, lemon juice, and nutritional yeast. Blend until smooth, adding a little water if necessary to reach desired consistency.

5. 5

   Combine and Serve

   Once the parsnips are done roasting, toss them with the parsley walnut pesto in a large bowl. Serve warm.
