My Turnips were starting to grow greens, and so I need to process some of them.
I cooked up a large pot of turnips and mashed them with butter, I have a good size bowl leftover.. so I made leftover Turnip Creamed Soup.
- 4 cups of leftover mashed Turnip
- 1 small onion
- 1 clove of garlic
- 3 cups of whole milk
- Salt, pepper, and dill
- A touch of oil
Use the oil in the bottom of a pan, add in a finely diced onion and garlic, cook until clear, then add in your leftover mashed, cooked Turnips, then add a few tbsp of water and get the first rush of heat in the turnips, stir it really well. Then add in your three cups of whole milk, bring to a simmer, (don’t boil), you can mash more, you can blend it for smooth, add you salt, pepper, and dill, make sure its heated though and serve.. Super simple to make, and very very tasty!





If this is as good as you say, then you just got yourself 8 1/2 million brownie points from me :-D. I have 3 bags of turnips taking up freezer space and we are not getting through them. A couple of batches of this should make a dent in them!!!
if you like the taste of turnips, you should love it
