Parsnips and carrots pair wonderfully for this healthy and delicious puree!

Parsnip is a very interesting root vegetable, it has a mild taste, slightly sweet, it is rich in vitamins and minerals, contains a lot of fibers and is poor in calories.

This puree is delicious and very flavorful, I also liked the texture that did not come out too smooth, it will remain a bit grainy. For a smoother puree, you should add 1 potato.

This parsnip and carrot puree is an interesting side, with a new flavor that I trust will be liked by most. The fact that it is poor in calories and rich in fibers adds to the pleasure of savoring it.
