turnipa really easy thing to do is cook carrots and turnip together (boil in water) and then mash them with butter and salt and pepper. the carrots help to sweeten the turnips and they are so tasty!! you can also roast them - make a root vegetable medley with parsnips, turnip, butternut squash - yummy!!

Sprinkle them with some olive oil and our Rosemary Herb seasoning and they are super yummy!

I've cut some and included in turkey noodle soup for the day after, or you can dice them with some tiny cauliflower florets , pop in microcooker and just a little butter on top for a great side dish.

Hi there! As a Pampered Chef consultant, I have plenty of ideas for cooking with turnips. One of my favorite recipes is roasted turnips with honey and thyme. Simply peel and chop the turnips, toss them in a mixture of honey, olive oil, and thyme, and roast them in the oven until they are tender and caramelized. Another delicious option is to make turnip fries by slicing them into thin strips, coating them in a mixture of flour, salt, and pepper, and baking them in the oven until crispy. You can also add turnips to soups, stews, or even mashed potatoes for a unique twist. I hope these suggestions help and that your stepdad enjoys his turnip dishes!
