This recipe is similar to my Curried Quinoa and Sweet Potato recipe. However, this turnip recipe has less steps, making it quicker to prepare. Curry is one of my favorite spice blends — especially in the cold months. It is loaded with antioxidants and has many other life giving benefits. Turmeric, a primary ingredient in curry, is known for its many medicinal properties:
- Anti-inflammatory
- Increases brain function
- Antioxidant
- Heart health
- Cancer prevention (and treatment)
- Mental well-being

I like to cook with white turnips because they have a milder flavor than the purple-topped variety. I am sure, however, purple turnips would work just as well in this recipe.
