everyone thought this dish was excellent. the flavor of the turnips and bacon really complement each other. i will definitely make this again.

This was not a hit with us though it may be more because we are not huge turnip fans. My husband and I both felt there was too much bacon grease. I tried it because my husband is doing low carb and I'm trying to get creative with veggies but I won't be making this again.
I went to my daughter home in Detroit I brought this recipe with me. She has already bought the white turnips.So I used them. My grandaughter who said she does not like turnips tasted them and said they were good. My husband who said he just like the yellow said I can make these again I used everything else in this recipe.
I have made this twice now. It was such a hit with both the kids and adults that I was requested to make again and my daughter in law bought the turnips for me since both her boys loved it.
I wouldn't go as far to say you could (or should) pass these off as mashed potatoes BUT these are excellent and a great way to incorporate turnips in your diet. Hubs wasn't thrilled when he saw turnips on the grocery list but I got a huge thumbs up on these in the end. I will definitely make this again!
I lessened the bacon grease based on other reviews added about 2 tbsp light cream cheese and a little fat free milk and spun it through the food processor for good texture. All loved it. Try the Garlic Mashed Cauliflower on AllRecipes for another veggie side dish!
