Re: turnips for mashed potatoes

[Guest guest]

My 17 month old loves turnips - we boil them in a little salt and mush them just

like mashed potatoes and then add the butter - He gets over twice of this

vegetable compared to the other ones he likes.

I read that some people replace potato with turnips.... anyone here try

this?

any recipe ideas (i.e. to simulate french fries?)

For mashed potatoes we use cauliflower but I'm going to try the turnips.

For french fries, I use zucchini, I peel it and then slice it like shoe

string

frieds and then fry in a skillet intil crispy and then salt. He loves them.

What about the flat bread? Where did you get it? How many carbs etc.

Thanks

Turnips are a big hit with my 8yr. old, too. She also loves the

cauliflower " potatoes " . Steam cauliflower and mash. Add cream

cheese, butter, cheddar cheese and a little parmesan cheese (adjust

amounts to your child's diet Rx). Put in an over proof pan and broil

until it bubbles and the top turns slightly brown. I think this and

the cheese crisps will be around even after we are completely off the

diet!
