Honey Glazed Turnips and Carrots are weeknight fast, but would also pair wonderfully with ham, turkey or lamb for holidays.<\/p>\n\n\n

I love growing my own turnips or getting them from the CSA because they keep the greens on. It's like getting two vegetables in one! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The greens usually become Smothered Greens<\/a> or other saut\u00e9ed greens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, most grocery store stores assume people don't want them and trim them off. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The inspiration for this recipe came from the Cook's Illustrated Cookbook<\/a>, with a few tweaks for my equipment and tastes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It takes less than 30 minutes to make so it is great for weeknights. Or double or triple it to serve along with your holiday meals <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients for Turnips and Carrots<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I listed a pound each of turnips and carrot<\/strong>s below. There is no need to weigh them and use exact proportions. Two medium turnips and 4 or 5 medium large carrots should be about right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chicken or vegetable broth<\/strong> add extra flavor, but you could use plain water if you don't have any on hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used honey<\/strong> this time, but maple syrup or brown sugar could also be used. It's only a little sweetness and it won't glaze without it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fresh lemon and thyme<\/strong> really make this dish special. They accent the flavors of the root vegetables nicely and do not over power them at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Olive oil,<\/strong> or other cooking oil to saute the veggies, and a little salt and peppe<\/strong>r to finish rounds out the ingredient list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
