Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Cook parsnip in boiling water until fork-tender, 5 to 7 minutes, drain and transfer parsnip to a bowl. Pour butter over parsnip and mash with a fork.
Divide beef, peas and corn mixture, and mashed parsnips between two plates.

Recipe Note

Thought of this when I only had a few minutes to whip up dinner, and no potatoes. The parsnips really add to the flavor. All measurements are approximate.
