The ingredients for Amazing Baked Turnips are:

2 medium turnips, sliced thin (you can use a mandoline)
1-2 Tb olive oil
1-2 Tb flour (I use brown rice flour as I'm a celiac)
3/4 cup coconut milk (So Delicious brand is great, reg milk ok)
3 Tb Nutritional Yeast
dash of salt, to taste
1/2 tsp garlic powder
small pieces of butter, optional
1-2 oz of really good, raw aged cheddar (this makes the dish!)

Here is how you make Amazing Baked Turnips:

Preheat oven to 350.Slice the turnips into a bowl (should be about 1 - 2 cups). Set aside. Make a roux by heating the olive oil over medium for a minute, then adding the flour and salt. Stir over medium until bubbly, then add the milk, whisking to combine. Continue to stir over medium-high heat until it just thickens. Remove from heat and correct seasoning, if needed. Add the nutritional yeast.Layer about 2/3 of the sliced turnips into a small baking dish (pie plate or mini-pyrex works well for 1 serving). Top with the sauce. Layer the remaining turnips, garlic powder, some small pieces of butter, and the shredded cheddar.Bake for 25 minutes at 350, then kick it up to 400 for the last 5 to make the top golden.Let rest a few minutes before eating.Notes:You can make this vegan by omitting the butter and using your preferred cheese sub on top.You can go the other way and use butter instead of olive oil and real milk.If you can have cheese, I HIGHLY recommend going with a good aged raw cheddar. You'll find you only need a small amount (1 - 2 oz) but the flavor impact is huge.Number of Servings: 2Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user EMMIESIX.
