so, i've been thinking for some time about doing a recipe swap. the way it works is super simple. i am including links to all the recipes i've feature so far on this post. not a lot, i know. but, i think that's a good starting point. in order to participate,
- leave a comment with a recipe for me to try or a link to a recipe you have on your blog that you would like for me to try.
- pick one of my recipes to try and include that in the comment.
- when you have tried my recipe, post on your blog about it and let me know via a comment on the original recipe post that you have posted about it. i will then, let everyone know about your results.
- when i have tried your recipe, i will post about it.
- i do have one fairly simple rule. i need all recipes you want me to try to be vegetarian, so i can eat them. this really isn't as difficult as you think. i simply don't eat meat. i'm not a vegan so eggs, dairy, honey, veggies, fruits, carbs, etc are all parts of my diet. so, if you are a meat and potato eater, think sides, deserts, breads. but, i would love to try some vegetarian entrees from y'all too.
- more than one person can do the same recipe.
- i'd especially love to see some pics of everyone's creations.
- if you're participating, i'd really love it if you put this button i made all by myself on your blog.
- the more the merrier and have fun!!!

Oven Turnip "Fries"
I am doing a low-carb diet, and here is one of my easiest recipes that I use to go along with things like burgers or steaks. It's so quick & easy!
Ingredients:
4 medium sized turnips (or rutagagas) peeled
oil (canola or olive, etc)
salt (recipe calls for kosher)
chili powder
Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees
Cut up turnips into french fry shape (long & thin strips or short fat strips, however you like)
put them on a baking pan that's covered with tin foil
drizzle some oil over all of the "fries"
add salt and chili powder to taste (usually a light dusting works well)
cook for 30 mins, flipping once at 15 mins for even cooking.
They are slightly sweeter than fries and they are much healthier!
Oh, and I will try your deviled eggs recipe!
growing up we used to mix up turnips in mashed potatoes, so this definitely sounds like a good idea to me. this is so simple i look forward to trying it.
stopping in from the sitstahood! sounds like fun now which one to choose.. ill be back! (make sure you do an arnold voice in your head when your read that.)
oh mary you totalled cracked me up.
I'm going to try the microwave popcorn in a brown paper bag. I think you may enjoy this recipe of mine : http://tried-and-truecookingwithheidi.blogspot.com/2009/04/fat-free-cheesecake-stuffed.html
I have a lovely Macaroni and Cheese recipe with fresh thyme for you to try!
I would like to try your Lemon Chess Pie or the Lemonade Frosting!
I made the popcorn and we loved it! Great recipe :) If you don't think the recipe I suggested for you to try looks good, just check out my recipes and pick one you think you would enjoy.

i'm glad ya liked it. i love that making it in the microwave myself gives me the option to control my fat content, salt, etc plus i don't have to bother with an extra kitchen gadget like an air popper since i have such a small kitchen.
will totally check it out and pick one.
