Instead of using about 1/3 cup of sugar, what could I substitute for flavor in a turnip casserole? I made my own version for lunch today.

thyme, dill, onions, shallots, green onions, cabbage, and kale would all go well with turnips. So would bacon, sour cream, butter, and ham. Probably any form of pork or dairy would be fine! I bet there are other ideas out there as well.

Pioneer Woman has a recipe that looks yummy:

I think that a touch of Nutmeg would go great with the turnips too.

I like to add some waxy potatos and butter. Sometimes I add greens. But when the turnips are young, I like them all by themselves!

Nutmeg and thyme both sound good. What about basil? Has anyone tried any other herbs?
