I mean, seriously.. Can you believe that these were made out of turnips? And that they were baked?? They look so heavenly and taste amazing! I will never use potatoes to make french fries ever again! My husband and I have made these turnip fries 4 days in a row. They're just the greatest snack and compliment any dinner dish! Let's not forget about that beautiful avocado dipping sauce I made. The combination of these two will give your taste buds a run for their money. I never really understood what that analogy meant but hey why not. Recipe makes 2 servings of fries and 4 servings of dipping sauce.
Nutritional Information Per Serving: 80 cals for fries, 50 cals for sauce.

Ingredients for Fries:
4 turnips (rutabaga's) peeled and sliced into 1/2 inch french fries
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tbsp chili powder
1/2 tbsp oregano
Ingredients for Sauce:
1 medium avocado, pitted
2 tbsp light miracle whip
juice of 1/2 lime
4 turnips (rutabaga's) peeled and sliced into 1/2 inch french fries
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tbsp chili powder
1/2 tbsp oregano
Ingredients for Sauce:
1 medium avocado, pitted
2 tbsp light miracle whip
juice of 1/2 lime
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Put the sliced turnips in a mixing bowl and toss really well with the chili powder, oregano, and olive oil. Lay them out flat onto a lined and greased baking pan (I sprayed olive oil spray onto parchment paper. Bake 15 minutes, take the fries out and flip every one of them then bake for another 15 minutes on the other side. While the fries are baking, add the avocado, miracle whip, and lime juice to a food processor. Pulse until smooth. Serve the two together and voila :).
