Mashed Peppery Turnips image

This recipe was created as an attempt to use up a great turnip season from our garden as well as lighten up one of our favorite dishes. By using turnips in place of potatoes, I made a low-carb side. Now we rarely serve plain mashed potatoes! -Courtney Stultz, Weir, Kansas
