      Never had a turnip in my life! This meal was fantastic. We didnt ahve beef a/cheddar kiolbassa but we used jalepeno/beef and it was also delicious. We topped with a fried egg. The perfect flavorful brunch! This may become a weekly staple. Thank you!

      Hoping to try this tonight! Looks yummy! Would it work to sub radishes for the turnips? (New to radishes . And turnips. 🙂 )

        Hi KC, radishes have a bit more water than turnips so they won't be crispy. Some readers like this recipe with radish though so feel free to give it a try!

      I haven't made this just yet - and maybe this is a silly question - but I have seen the terms turnip and rutabega used interchangeably in recipes before - where a rutabega should be used but the recipe calls for turnip. Can you verify what veggie you actually use in this recipe - the turnip (white/purple skin with white flesh) or a rutabega (gold/purple skin with gold flesh)? Thanks!

        Hi Heather - we used turnips in this recipe as we don't find the two interchangeable. Turnips are a bit peppery whereas rutabagas are sweeter.
