Delicious pan fried turnips with onions and spinach make a scrumptious low carb side dish special enough for the holiday table but easy enough for weekdays.

I?m a huge fan of turnips as low carb sides. My family can?t get enough of these pan fried turnips. If you had told me years ago that my kids would eat turnips, I wouldn?t have believed you!
But they do and for good reason.
These pan fried turnips are just simply delicious with a rich buttery finish and a little smokiness from the scallions. A hint of fresh thyme gives them an earthy slightly lemony flavor.
Pan fried turnips sound great but what do turnips taste like"
Turnips are earthy with a slight sharpness not unlike radishes, however they are less watery than radishes. Turnips are similar to rutabagas in flavor although not as sweet. At times, raw turnips have a mildly bitter undertone or may taste a bit peppery and sharp. However, they mellow in flavor as they cook. With this pan fried turnip recipe, your turnips will be sweet and caramelized with a buttery rich finish. You won?t be able to get enough of them!
