Happy Monday everyone. I realize the title of this one isn’t that exciting. I couldn’t think of anything clever! If you have any suggestions please let me know. I am willing to change it!

Did you notice anything different about the photos of this recipe? I sure hope so! These were taken with my brand new fancy camera. Yep I think I can officially call myself a blogger now… maybe… I don’t really like that term very much I must admit.

Now I am still getting used to this new beast but already I am so happy with the photos I have taken. So much more detailed and crisp looking! Now unfortunately I still have a bunch of recipes left that I had already photographed with my old camera so you will have to put up with those for a while longer… sorry.

Now I know that most of you will already be familiar with paleo ‘faux’ potatoes using mashed cauliflower. Well this is an extension of that delicious recipe, but made even better (in my humble and unbiased opinion) by the addition of parsnips! These make a great side dish for almost any dinner, or are delicious eaten alone.

Please let me know what you think of this one!

And as always please like us on Facebook and Pinterest to find even more recipes and health information.
