Rockin' Rosemary Turnips

If you like mashed potatoes, chances are you'll fall in love with this new and exciting twist on an old favorite. Rockin' Rosemary Turnips is a dish is packed with flavor and nutrients. Topped off with caramelized onions, it's absolutely irresistible. Trust me.
Turnips are loaded with Vitamin C. Plus, they provide only 1/3 of the calories of an equal amount of potatoes. Need I say more? Go get some turnips, and get cooking!
