Potato, Rutabaga & Parsnip Casserole image

I finally convinced my brother that onions are edible. So now I serve this with the family's Thanksgiving turkey dinner. Note: I save the broth that is drained from the cooked vegetables and use it in my pumpkin bisque, which I serve as the appetizer for the turkey dinner.
