Have never thought of combining carrots and parsnips in this way. Must give it a try although I only have three germinated parnsips growing in my row this year so somewhat of a dilemma in how to use them !

The recipe sounds amazing. I am gonna try it sooner or later this week. I usually cook carrots alone as a breakfast dish. Let me explain how I like it.
Basically what I do is take 2 table spoon of EVOO with crushed garlic and low heat it in a sauce pan. 2-3 minutes later i add chopped carrots in and let it cook for like 15 minutes until it tenders. Once its cooked I remove the garlic and Drizzle it with more EVOO .
That's it, we are ready wit this awesome looking dish.
