This is good winter food. Carrots are rich in vitamin A, rutabaga and parsnips in C, potatoes in vitamin C & B6, and they all bring a cocktail of different minerals, including potassium, manganese, selenium and much, much more. And garlic brings cancer-fighting organosulfur compounds to the party.
Use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes. They have a consistency that is perfect to bind the mashed vegetables.
I love this with butter, but if you want to avoid dairy, try mashing the veg with some good quality olive oil instead. Add it a tablespoon at a time, up to 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) or until you get the consistency you want, especially if your mouth is sore.
