My cousin gave us a bunch of turnips from a field he was going to plow up. Although I have never been a fan of turnips, I am frugal, and looked for simple recipes for them, hoping my taste had changed a little toward turnips since the childhood trauma of having to eat them. Since I had the simple ingredients for this recipe, I decided to make it right away to see if I could eat it. YES! I could! My husband, who is also not a turnip fan, has not come in for lunch yet, but but I am hopeful that when he tries this, he will be as happy with this delicious dish as I am! THANKS, Sooz!

I grew up in Tucson but moved to Colorado in 1989 and live in a household with my husband, Dad, daughter and 3-year old twin granddaughters. Our 8-year old grandson spends 2 nights a week with us. All of that adds up to often difficult menu ideas to met everyone's tastes.
Zaar is very addicting and I love trying the recipes I find here. I like to find recipes of people that I see are still active on Zaar and love it when I hear back from the Chef after I review the recipe. Everytime someone reviews one of my recipes, I like to find one of theirs to make and review as quickly as possible. It's a way for me to find great chefs I don't know yet too!
My husband has high blood sugar so we try to watch our carbs, but it is not easy because we love them so much!
I was diagnosed with brain tumors in 2005 and so far have had 5 surgeries that have left my eyelid droopy. I hope to have a surgery that will correct that soon!! There is still one tumor they have not removed but my wonderful doctor James Garrity at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN says they will leave it alone until or if it ever causes problems!
