I'll have to serve this for my hubby....he loves rutabaga....thanks!


This is one food I have never, ever eaten! Your recipe makes me want to try it.

If you've never tried rutabaga, you really should give it a go - fantastic flavor! Hats off to your mom for teaching you early on the great taste of this veggie...
