We used a pear to sweeten the strong flavor of turnips, then added some
roasted garlic for a robust alternative to mashed potatoes.
Steam turnips over boiling water until fork tender, about 15 minutes.
Drain turnips and place in a food processor or blender along with pear,
garlic, and margarine. Process until smooth, adding skim milk as needed.
Season with salt and pepper.
Makes 8 servings.
