This autumn-inspired puree is a delicious change of pace from applesauce or potatoes. It's made with cooked-down parsnips and pears, low-fat buttermilk, and ground cardamom. All the ingredients are quickly blended in a blender or food processor, and this hearty, perfectly spiced accompaniment to any fall meal is ready to go. You may enjoy it so much that it could find its way onto your Thanksgiving table as a unique and tasty side. It's easy to scale up as well if you're having a bunch of people over for dinner.
