This recipe was submitted in our We ♥ Local Parsnips Recipe Contest by Jeannie Bartlett. Jeannie says, "Toasty Parsnip Spread is easy to make with ingredients already on hand. It can be a staple or made elegant - serving for a quick, to-go lunch or for a warming winter dinner party...It can be adapted to what you have on hand, substituting different nuts or seeds, vinegars, oils, and herbs. It has protein, healthy fats, and the healing phytonutrient qualities of garlic, turmeric, and sage."
