Before I made a pot of Root Vegetable and Quinoa Soup, I oven-roasted a turnip and rutabaga, which I enjoyed with plain couscous. When I was a kid my family had a small backyard garden. One year we decided to try planting a couple of new vegetables: turnips and kohlrabi. These vegetables flourished in our little garden! Not quite sure how to prepare them, someone thought to bake the turnips and kohlrabi with butter and seasoning. When I moved out, I discovered how wonderful turnips can be stir-fried and neglected the simple oven-roasted vegetable. I was nostalgic and I made this. Enjoy!
