    Quick and Easy Glazed Turnips and Carrots

    December 10, 2019 Filed Under: Vegetable Stove, Vegetables

    Easy recipe for Glazed Turnips and Carrots, quickly pan roasted veggie slices in a sweet lemon glaze. Ready in 30 minutes.

    These Glazed Turnips and Carrots are weeknight fast, but would also pair wonderfully with ham, turkey or lamb for holidays.

    Lemon Glazed Turnips and Carrots

    I love growing my own turnips or getting them from the CSA because they keep the greens on. It's like getting two vegetables in one!

    The greens become Smothered Greens. But, I wanted to do a little something different with them so I turned to The Cook's Illustrated Cookbook and found the inspiration for this recipe.

    The lemon and thyme accent the flavors of the root vegetables nicely and do not over power them at all.

    It takes less than 30 minutes to make so it is great for weeknights. Or double it to serve along with your holiday dinners.

    • 1 pound turnips (peeled and cut into ¾ inch cubes)
    • 1 pound carrots (peeled and cut into ½ inch slices)

    • 1 ½ tablespoon brown sugar (or other sweetener)
    • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
    • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
    • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
