My grand mother was cooking carrots and turnip with her potatoes for my grandpa to eat veggies and it's what I do. Over the years I came up with some personal touches. My husband loves them.
Grandma's mashed potatoes
Ingredients
6 Red potatoes (not peeled)
2 Carrots
1 Turnip
1 Scallion (roughly chopped)
2 cloves Garlic (roughly chopped)
3/4 cup Vegetable broth
1 tablespoon Butter
1/4 cup Extra sharp cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper to taste.
Directions
Peel, cut roughly the 2 carrots and put them in a pot with 3/4 cup of broth. Turn on the burner on high and keep on eye on it. Meanwhile peel the turnip, cut roughly and add to the pot. Wash the potatoes, cut them and add to the pot. Last add the scallion and garlic. Season with a little bit of salt and pepper but remember that the broth is probably salty and the cheese is too. Cover and keep an eye on it. When it boils lower down the heat to medium low and let cook for about 20 minutes or until fork tender. Add the tablespoon of butter and the 1/4 cup of cheddar. If it's too thick add some milk until desired consistency.
So good, let me know if you try it or a version of it. Remember to eat veggies, make it à la you, eat healthy, be healthy and bon appétit!
