Scalloped Turnips

Recipe #298624 | 25 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 4 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Oolala

Mrs. Carl Albert submitted this in a 1971 cookbook called Favorite Recipes of our First Ladies. Her husband was speaker of the house and she said this is one of his favorite recipes because "he is a country boy and loves fresh vegetables and greens" - haven't made it yet. This recipe calls for grated cheese but doesn't specify which one so if you make it, let us know what cheese you used and how it was.
