Linda Williamson's Broccoli and Carrot Mash
Why I Love This Recipe
From my Dutch Great Grandma :) Vegetable mashes are very traditional sides. With the most popular being traditional hutsut a mash of potatoes, carrots and onions. But to me it's a lil bland for a side and tastes much better served w/ beef and gravy! This brocc and carrot mash is a stand alone side and one of our favs! The other mash we make most often is one I concocted a mix of my fried corn and peppers with mashed potatoes. That one tastes great as a stand alone side and w/ beef and gravy!
