Some say that turnips taste like a cross between cabbage and a radish; others say they taste more like a cross between a carrot and a potato. Either way, you’ll find this quick and easy turnip snack cool and refreshing. A touch of spice and fresh lemon juice add the perfect hint of flavor.

How to Make Spiced-up Turnip and Cucumber Snack Sticks

  1. In a bowl, combine cucumbers and turnips. (There is no need to cook the turnips.)
