Red Wine Beef and Mushrooms served on a warm cozy bed of Parsnip Puree - The Urban Ecolife

If you want to romance me, serve me up some red wine and beautifully cooked beef (grass-fed of course) and you’ll have won my heart over. Somewhat depressingly, I romance myself over with a dish like this red wine beef and mushrooms. You know those meals you cook and you high five yourself and you kind of just wish you had someone there to share the experience with? Yeah well, that never happens to me. I’ll never admit to that. Thankfully I more often than not have family and friends to make up for that vacant space to wine and dine with.

The parsnip puree was a first for me and one that I shall be repeating many times over. It has such a different consistency than potatoes. Or maybe that’s just me. At the end of the day it’s all just creamed up vegetables. But alas, it’s what you do with them that counts.

So grab your red wine, grab your partner in crime, light up the candles and turn up the Rod Stewart. No wait. PLEASE don’t turn on the Rod Stewart. Anything but Rod.
