Healthy Boiled Turnips
Finding something healthy to eat that is also tasty and new can be tough. If you haven't had them, turnips may be a great answer though. Cooking turnips is difficult for some people, but with this easy recipe you'll know just how to do it!
Notes
Use in any soup for which you would use potatoes or parsnips. Matzoh ball soup and chicken soup are classics. Slice thin and fry in low fat oil for a stir fry. Radishes are awesome this way too. Use raw grated or cooked mashed turnip in place of similar prepped potatoes in pancakes.
