Turnips

 

"This tastes interesting, in a pleasant way!" That was Wayne's comment when I served this for dinner. We picked up turnips this week at the grocery store, and parsnips the week before. This was a simple way to cook them. They're actually quite good.

Mashed Root Vegetables

Peel and dice a turnip, parsnip and carrot. Cook in boiling water until tender. Drain and mash with a tablespoon or two of butter. Season with salt, pepper and thyme.
