I had already made these and making them again today for lunch. They come out really nice. A different taste than potato, but equally as good. Now I don't use Mrs. Dash, but I use a similar seasoning, just a different brand. So basically, the same flavor. They came out very crunchy, perfectly cooked.<br/><br/>I did cook mine on parchment paper and did flip them 1/2 way through cooking and just perfect. Thx for a nice alternative to the FRENCH FRY!<br/>Very nice recipe

These are so delicious! I had never tried rutabagas before and it's now one of my favorites.

Great new way for me to enjoy the rutabaga! And no need for ketchup....these are delicious all by themselves. I noticed mine getting a bit to brown, so I reduced the cooking temp a bit half-way through. Turned out great....thanks for sharing!
