Honey-Roasted Turnips

Hi there!  I'm thrilled to say we have been trying new veggies around our house lately and so far, so good.  We recently had honey-roasted turnips.  I've never had a turnip before (not that I can recall at least) and I was very pleased with the end result!  Plus, they were easy to prepare.  That is my kind of side dish!  We ate the turnips with pork chops and kale so overall it was a filling, tasty meal.  My almost two-year old didn't like the turnips as much as I did but she still tried them. I hope you'll give these a try!
