Because we can’t have potatoes in the Banting or Keto way of life, roasted turnips are a great alternative. With a low carb value of only 5.5g carbs for one medium sized turnip, this vegetable is a great alternative to potatoes.

INGREDIENTS

2 Tablespoons of Olive oil (or duck fat – makes them really crispy!)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Peel the turnips and slice into thick wedges
2. Rinse in cold water and pat dry

4. Spread onto a baking sheet and bake in a 180 degree oven for about 20-30 mins until cooked through
5. You can also do these in the air fryer
