This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the topping.

I'm not a huge fan of turnips, but this casserole was actually really good! The flavors were well-balanced and the topping was the perfect finishing touch.

This casserole was easy to make and so flavorful! The turnips were tender and the topping was crispy and delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

I tried this recipe last night and it was a hit! I made it with a few changes, like using sweet potatoes instead of turnips, and adding a bit of maple syrup to the topping. It turned out so delicious and my family loved it. Definitely a keeper!
