To make the Root Vegetable Mash, you will need the following ingredients:
In a Dutch oven, combine the chopped potatoes, parsnips, celery roots, 3 cups chicken broth, and 2 teaspoons salt. Add water to barely cover the vegetables.
Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
In a small saucepan, combine ⅔ cup milk, 2 teaspoons garlic powder, ½ teaspoon pepper, and the remaining ½ teaspoon salt and gently heat, but don't allow to boil.
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked vegetables to a large bowl, reserving the cooking liquid. Mash the vegetables, gradually adding the heated milk and the reserved cooking liquid to reach the desired consistency. Taste and adjust salt if needed.
Serve with gravy or melted butter and a sprinkle of black pepper
