How to Make Healthier Hash Browns Cauliflower Parsnips

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and peel 1 pound of parsnips. (Note: Parsnips often have a wax coating; peeling is recommended.)
  3. Finely chop 1 large head of cauliflower (about 4 cups chopped).
  4. In a large bowl, combine the chopped cauliflower and parsnips.
  5. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste).
  6. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.
  7. Spread the mixture in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 20 minutes, undisturbed, to allow the vegetables to caramelize. Resist the urge to stir!
  9. After 20 minutes, check for doneness. If desired, you can broil for 1-2 minutes for extra crispiness (watch closely to prevent burning).
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy and delicious hash browns!
