This is easy, delicious, nutritious and really colorful on the table. My family and guests all ask for it so it is now a regular on our Thanksgiving Menu.!! 10 Stars!
This has become of of my family favorites for Thanksgiving. It is so easy and is really colorful on the table.
As a beginner I found this recipe very "do-able" and everyone liked it so much at Thanksgiving last year that I am making it again this year. I also left the bacon in and it tasted fantastic!

I tried it tonight but with the carrots diagonally sliced and the parsnips sliced somewhat irregularly but about the same size as the carrot pieces. I also did not discard the bacon (which I had in about 3/4" pieces). Those who don't serve the bacon most likely ate it on the sly in the kitchen.
Only complaint I have: I searched for a parsnip recipe with under 30 minutes cooking/prep time. This has 45 minutes cooking time, plus prep.
My family loves this recipe, even the parsnip non-fans. However, we do NOT discard the bacon.
