Hi, all. I have just (accidentally) discovered the most amazing mashed potato substitute: mashed turnip! Take a turnip (not the yellow kind, rutabaga, which is higher in carbs and stronger tasting, but the white/purple kind). Peel it, cube it, steam it, mash it, mix in a dollop of mayo, some grated Parmesan, and some salt/pepper. Yum! and only 4.4 carbs/cup. The turnips are good raw too, crunchy!
