Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400F and spray a baking dish with oil.
  2. Cook beef in a skillet over medium heat until no longer pink.
  3. Pour out excess fat from the skillet if desired, but making sure to leave a little. Push beef to one side then add in garlic and saute for 30-60 seconds until fragrant. Add in onion and carrots and saute for 4-5 minutes until softened. Add in peas, tomato sauce, coconut aminos and spices and continue to cook until everything is well combined.
  4. While beef mixture cooks, bring a pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add in chopped and peeled parsnips and cook until fork tender. Once cooked, transfer to a food processor with salt, pepper, chives, and ghee and blend until pureed to preferred consistency.
  5. Add beef mixture to baking dish and spread out in an even layer. Spread mashed parsnips on top, then transfer to the oven to bake for 30-45 minutes. Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
