Twice-Baked Potatoes With Parsnip

Bake potatoes at 450for 50 minutes or until done; let cool slightly.

Cook chopped parsnip and garlic cloves in boiling water for 20 minutes or until tender, and drain. Mince garlic. Combine the parsnip, minced garlic, and cream cheese in a large bowl, and beat at medium speed of a mixer until smooth.

Cut each potato in half lengthwise, and scoop out the pulp, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick shell. Add potato pulp, buttermilk, and the next 5 ingredients (buttermilk through egg white) to the parsnip mixture. Stir in the chopped green onions. Spoon potato mixture into shells. Combine the grated Parmesan cheese and paprika, and sprinkle over the potatoes.

Bake at 400F for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are thoroughly heated. Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 1 potato half).
