Steps:
- Trim and peel turnips. Cut into chunks. Bring a 2 quart pan of water to boil. Add 2 tsp table salt and 2 tbsp white vinegar. Add turnips and boil until soft. Drain water. Mash turnips with 2 tbsp butter, cream and egg. Stir in 1/4 cup of the bread crumbs, sweetener and salt. Spoon into a casserole dish. Dot with remaining butter and sprinkle bread crumbs over the top. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes *I used Jennifer Eloff's recipe for Plain Bread, a quick microwave bread which toasted, makes good bread crumbs. Recipe Below 4 servings 165 cal. Jiffy Cinnamon Bread: 7 tbsp ground almonds (105 mL) 31/2 tsp coconut flour (17 mL) 31/2 tsp oat flour (17 mL) 1 tsp baking powder (5 mL) 1/2 tsp cinnamon (2 mL) 1/4 tsp salt (1 mL) 2 to 3 tbsp raisins, snipped (30 - 45 mL) in half 3 eggs 41/2 tsp heavy cream, OR almond milk, OR (22 mL) coconut milk Liquid sucralose to equal 4 tsp (20 mL) SPLENDA® Granular 11/2 tsp olive oil (7 mL) 3 tbsp shredded Monterey Jack cheese (45 mL) Spray an 8-inch (20 cm) square baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In medium bowl, combine ground almonds, coconut flour, oat flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Stir in raisins. In small bowl, with fork, whisk eggs, heavy cream, liquid sucralose, OR SPLENDA® Granular and olive oil together. Make a well in center of dry ingredients and pour in egg mixture. Sprinkle with cheese and mix everything together really well until the mixture thickens slightly. Pour mixture into prepared pan. Spread out evenly. Microwave on high 2 minutes and 50 seconds (Your microwave might need different timing. Mine is powerful and runs hot.). Remove from microwave oven and immediately cut a cross in the bread dividing it length-wise and horizontally in half into 4 quadrants. Take each half and flip it over to allow the undersides to dry out a bit. When cool, slice each piece in half horizontally so that you have 8 slices of bread that are more or less the size of a slice of store-bought raisin bread. Place in the toaster and toast until nice and brown.. Variation: Plain Bread (great for toast): Omit raisins, cinnamon, sweetener and salt. Instead use 1/4 tsp (1 mL) onion salt. This recipe makes great grilled cheese sandwiches in a grilled cheese sandwich maker. Nutritional Analysis: 8 slices, 1 slice: 103.6 cal; 5.2 g pro; 8.2 g fat; 1.7 g carbs

Steps:
- Cook the turnip greens according to package directions, omitting salt. Drain well and set aside. Preheat the oven to broil. Cook the bacon in a large, deep pan or Dutch oven over medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes or until crisp. Remove the bacon to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Discard all but one tablespoon of the bacon drippings, leaving it in the pan. To the hot drippings, add the onion and garlic and sauté for about 4 minutes or until onions begin to appear translucent. Add the wine and cook an additional 2 minutes while stirring to loosen any particles from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the cooked, well-drained turnip greens, cream cheese, sour cream, red pepper flakes, salt, ground pepper and ½ cup of the Parmesan cheese. Cook, stirring frequently until the cream cheese is completely melted and the mixture is heated through, about 6-7 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a lightly greased 8x8 baking dish. Sprinkle the top with the remaining ¼ cup Parmesan cheese. Broil for 4 to 5 minutes or until the Parmesan cheese is very lightly browned. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the reserved bacon. Serve with assorted crackers and tortilla chips.

TURNIP BAKE
This recipe has been in our family for years. We like turnips with turkey, so my mother used to serve this side dish with our turkey dinner at Christmas. Then I served this dish, and now my daughter, who has taken over preparing Christmas dinner, is carrying on the tradition.

Tips:
- Select the right turnips. Choose turnips that are small to medium in size, as they are more tender and flavorful. Look for turnips that are firm and smooth, with no blemishes or bruises.
- Peel and cube the turnips evenly. This will help them cook evenly in the casserole.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the onion and celery. This will help prevent them from becoming mushy in the casserole.
- Don't overcook the turnips. They should be tender, but still slightly firm. Overcooked turnips will become mushy and bland.
- Season the casserole to taste. Add salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings to taste before baking.
- Serve the casserole hot with your favorite sides. Amish turnip bake pairs well with roasted chicken, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.
