i am not a parsnip fan but my partner is hence the small amount in there and a treat for him once in a while.
oh and the carrots - use as many as you think, i used 4 because i bought a bag and they were all stupidly small the biggest one in there was about 3 inches. oh well its what you get for buying value stuff =p
another reciepe for you guys:
So the other day i discovered the only good thing to come out of oat bran. I will be honest i have been very naughty and havent had any oat bran for two months (i dont believe it has affected my weight loss and my system copes fine without it TMI =p) but i was really cold and craving some sort of warm filling winter food. so why not porridge?
Recipe:
2 tbs oat bran (amount dependant on phase)
Water
Skimmed Milk
Vanilla Extract
Sweetner
Mix oat bran and just enough water to cover – microwave for 1 minute.
and milk to consistancy required (i like milky porridge but save half my milk till after heating so it cools it down and i can eat it straight away =p) and heat for 30 seconds.
add 4 drops of vanilla extract and a teaspoon of sweetner. mix and enjoy.
I have to say this is my new favourite snack. the best thing to even come out of oatbran. it was so good i wanted more. i might even go as far as saying i might have my oatbran daily because of this =]
