Turnips?

I went shopping for amazing veggies again and turnips were the new veggie of the week :) 

This low calorie, fiber and antioxidant rich food is something new to try, so let this Fall be your chance to add it to your diet!

They take a little while to soften, so while making dinner, we snacked on some raw red peppers and cucumbers, which was a wonderfully cooling start. 

I made a turnip, yam, carrot mash as one side dish,....

 ....and large wild sea scallops, with avocado and an amazing garlic, veggie, avocado tomato sauce to top it all off.

They were a bit bitter for my son, but if sweet potato were added to the mash for more sweetness, he would've loved it. Thus, I recommend doing that if you're making this for your family or are not used to a more bitter flavor.
