  • “This recipe does the lowly turnip justice! Great mix of flavors. The buttered mushrooms give just that exrta touch. I used sugar snap peas (fresh) cut diagonally in 3 instead of the frozen peas and cooked them for about 1 minute so they added crunch but were still heated through. Another time I may even try mashing the turnips with the mushrooms & peas stirred through. Excellent recipe Lennie Thanks! — Sep 16, 2002, 3 members found this helpfulAdditional comments I really enjoy this rcipe – This time I used Kohlrabi (the garden is loaded with them) Cooked for 5 minutes, frozen peas (I did not precook them just added them to the mushrooms) everyone enjoyed their veggies”

  • “I tried this last night andit wasvery tasty.I added a few onions to the dish and it added some nice flavor.Very easy to make!”

  • “Nice! I went light on the rutabaga and heavy on the peas, and used half butter and half olive oil for the mushrooms. Makes a delicious and easy all-in-one vegetable dish good enough for company, simple enough for everyday. “
