I had the same problems as a previous reviewer. Everything was over cooked after just 30 minutes. However, it had outstanding flavors and was very easy. I substituted butternut squash for the turnips. I will make it again shortening the cook time and possibly lowering the oven temp. This may even make an appearance at Thanksgiving.

Add subtle sweetness by roasting root vegetables like carrots, parsnips, turnips, and onions. It's easy and oh-so-delicious.
