Does anyone have suggestions on recipes for celery root? I'd like to eat more of this vegetable because of its nutrition profile. How can it be turned into a high Protein dish?

I love celeriac and couldn't believe I spotted a post about it! Can be cubed and added to soups or stews very nicely, or just like cauliflower can be steamed and whizzed up in a food processor with stock (I use chicken). It's a fabulous vegetable.

I parboil it, shred it like coleslaw pieces, and make a cold salad, with low fat mayo and plain low fat yogurt mixed together as the dressing. You could mix in grated carrots, too.

Great post! I love celeriac. I don't use it for Protein, though, I use it as a potato substitute. Basically, anything I would do with a potato I do with celeriac for a low carb/low calorie version.

You can mash it with butter and milk, roast it, microwave it, serve it au gratin...

Chayote squash (or mirliton) is also a good potato alternative, as are rutabagas.

If you wanted to use it for a high protein dish, maybe make Shepherd's Pie? For the base, brown up some ground meat (beef or lamb or turkey) with some minced onion. Add a few tablespoons Water to make a broth and cook it down a bit. Season to taste. Put in an oven proof dish. Top it with mashed celeriac. Brown in a hot oven for 15 minutes or so and serve.

When you eat it, be sure to dig down and eat the meat first so you don't get full on celeriac

Shredded, stir fried - I used to mix it with noodled for 'cabbage and noodles'. Now I think I'm inspired to try making some fritters.
