Double-cooking the turnips brings out their natural sweetness. Serve

this

dish with a colorful tossed salad or mixed steamed vegetables.

 

Peel turnips, dice and place in the slow cooker with vegetable broth

and

onion. Cover and cook on low heat for 6 to 8 hours, or on high heat

for 2

to 3 hours, until turnips are very tender.

 

Mash turnip mixture until smooth. Add parsley, applesauce, pepper and

1/2

of the melted butter. Taste and add salt if desired. Return mixture

to

slow cooker.

 

In a bowl, combine remaining butter and breadcrumbs. Sprinkle turnip

mixture with buttered crumbs. Cover and cook on low heat for 1 to 2

hours.
