Root vegetables are hearty, healthy and in season right now. Though many of us are unfamiliar with popular root veggies like the parsnip, rutabaga and turnip, they're all easy to prepare and delicious when glazed and roasted. They're also perfect additions to soups and stews.
Parsnips are close relatives to carrots, but are lighter in color and sweeter when cooked. Parsnips thrive in colder climates and the Ancient Romans found that the further north they brought the parsnip, the larger it grew. When it comes to nutrition, parsnips are richer in vitamins and minerals than carrots and have particularly high levels of Potassium and Fiber.
The rutabaga is a cross between cabbage and turnips. Rutabagas originated in Scandinavia and Russia and are commonly eaten mashed, in stews, or as a side dish. Nutritionally, rutabagas have a ton of Vitamin C, Folate and Fiber.
Turnips are a popular root vegetable eaten across the world. Best of all, the tops a.k.a. turnip greens are also a tasty side dish popular in the UK and Southeastern US. While the bulbs are high in Vitamin C, the tops are a good source of Vitamin A, Folate, Vitamin C, Vitamin K and Calcium
