Turnips Taters And Ham Food

SLOW-COOKER HAM WITH TURNIPS

Steps:

• Put the apples, garlic, thyme, parsley, pickling spice and brown sugar in a 5-to-6-quart slow cooker. Add the ham and surround it with the turnips. Pour in the wine and 2 cups water. Cover and cook on low, 7 hours.
• Remove the ham from the slow cooker. Add the greens to the cooker and stir to combine with the liquid. Return the ham to the cooker, cover and cook on high 30 minutes.
• Slice the ham and serve with the turnips, apples and greens.

NEEPS AND TATTIES

Steps:

• Place potatoes and swede in a large pot; cover with water. Bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain. Add butter and mustard powder; mash until well incorporated.
• Stir scallions, salt, and pepper into the mash.

TURNIPS, TATERS AND HAM

Steps:

• In a saucepan, saute onion in butter until tender. Stir in flour, salt if desired, basil and pepper. Gradually stir in water and milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat; boil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat. In a greased 11x7-in. baking dish, layer potatoes, turnips and ham; pour sauce over all. Cover and bake at 350° for 1-1/4 hours or until potatoes are tender. Garnish with parsley.

HAM-AND-CHEESE-WRAPPED TATER TOTS

Steps:

• Bake the Tater Tots as the label directs; let cool slightly.
• Spread about 1/2 teaspoon mustard on 1 slice of ham, then sprinkle with 1 heaping teaspoon finely chopped dill pickle. Top with a Swiss cheese slice and cut lengthwise into 3/4-inch-wide strips. Wrap each Tater Tot in a ham-and-cheese strip and secure with a toothpick.
• Position a rack 6 inches from the broiler; preheat the broiler. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Transfer the wrapped Tater Tots to the prepared baking sheet and broil until the ham starts crisping around the edges and the cheese melts, 2 to 3 minutes.

HAM AND TATER TOTS CROCK POT BREAKFAST

Steps:

• In 4-5 quart crock pot, layer ingredients in order: tater tots, ham, onions, green peppers, and cheese.
• Repeat layers two more times, ending with cheese.
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine eggs and milk and beat with whisk or egg beater until combined.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour mixture over layers in crock pot.
• Cover crock pot and cook on low for 10-12 hours.

BAKED TURNIP 'TATERS, LOW CARB DIABETIC

Steps:

• Peel turnips, making sure to remove the tough top bits; place in a saucepan.
• Cover with water and bring to a boil.
• Cover with pan lid, lower heat and simmer for about an hour until tender.
• Drain then cut into chunks small enough to fit in your food processor.
• Place chunked veggies, butter, and sour cream in a food processor and puree.
• Add beaten eggs and cheese and whir some more until ingredients are well-mixed (it won't take long).
• Pour into casserole dish and bake for about 20 minutes at 350°F until it's a little brown on top and edges (or you can nuke it for about 7-10 minutes).
• You might want to experiment the first couple of times you make it to see how brown you like the top.
• You can sprinkle a little more cheese on the top before baking, if you like.
• (You can also cube the turnips ahead of time then simmer and it doesn't take so long to cook, but some turnips are so hard to cut when raw that I've given up on that technique and just boil them whole.) Optional: add a garlic clove to the cooking veggies and puree along with everything else; adds.
• 25 carbs to each serving.
• Other options: 1/4 tsp dill, crumbled bacon, etc.
• Fluffier than other mashed-potato substitutes, because of the egg baked inches.
• Mmmm!
• The carb count on these might be a bit off, but they wouldn't be much more.
• Turnips are pretty low.

TURNIP GREEN SOUP WITH HAM AND SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Mix chicken broth, turnip greens, navy beans, pinto beans, sausage, ham, and onion together in a stockpot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the greens are tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Season with black pepper.

BOILED DINNER WITH TURNIPS AND HAM HOCKS

Steps:

• Combine the turnips, carrots, onion, bay leaf, ham hocks and chicken broth in a large pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.
• Remove the ham hocks from the broth. Remove the meat from the bone, trim of all fat and cut into thin strips.
• Ladle the broth and vegetables into soup bowls. Divide the meat among the bowls. Garnish each bowl with some pepper flakes and cilantro. Serve immediately.
