Tasty recipe. I sub'd yogurt for the cream. I sliced the rutabagas very thin with an electronic slicer, however, after the recommended baking time & still found it on the crunchie side. I haven't cooked alot with rutabagas but maybe that is it's trait anyhow. I really enjoyed the flavours though so I will try it again one day. Thanks for sharing.
