Za’atar Mashed Turnips

It is believed that turnips were served at the very first Thanksgiving! Their texture is not particularly creamy, so we often add a potato or two in with the turnips.

Mashed Cauliflower

Mashed cauliflower is a nice alternative to mashed potatoes. Cauliflower can seem bland, so be sure to season them well. We love them with extra garlic and plenty of salt and pepper.
