The recipes b.zang posted look really good!!! I may have to try one of them for our church thanksgiving potluck next week. ;) I usually keep it simple....steam or boil turnip and carrots in a small amt of water..., drain, then mash with a little butter, cream, and br.sugar.
The difference between turnip and rutabaga? Turnip is the one with the purple top, rutabaga is yellow. Both are good. :D
