List of Ingredients




4 large turnips; peeled and cleaned, sliced into thin slices and boiled for 3 minutes in water with 3T cream added; drained well
2 slices bacon
1T butter
1 large onion sliced into paper thin rings
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup shreded white cheese of your choice(asiago is my favorite in this)
Additional 1/2 cup cheese for top(optional)
3T butter
1/2tsp salt
1/4tsp pepper
1/8tsp nutmeg

Recipe



Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 2 quart casserole with cooking spray and set aside. Dice bacon and fry until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon, leaving drippings in pan. Add butter, nutmeg and onions. Saute onions over low heat until nicely browned. Add the bacon back in. In a microwave safe cup, melt butter and then add cream and cheese. Stir to melt, heating for 20 second intervals as needed.

Place 1/2 the turnips in the bottom of the casserole then salt and pepper, followed by 1/2 the onion mix and 1/2 the cheese sauce. Repeat layers then top with additional cheese if using. Cover well and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 15-20 minutes or until top browns and it's all bubbly and tender.
