I love turnip greens but the root not so much except as turnip/sweet potato mash with beef. But I have cut out beef. I know it is good roasted with other root vegetables and it takes out the bitterness. I need to do that more often.

I eat turnip greens too along with beet greens I put them in a salad or saute them like spinach with some garlic and a little vinegar. The vinegar helps neutralize the bitterness. If you add them to a salad, make sure to have a vinaigrette dressing again to help neutralize the bitterness. You can also add them (and the turnips) to soups or stews. If you buy soup greens in the produce department they will have turnips and parsnips included in the package. I have to admit, after reading the article I need more turnips in my life! ❤️
