Very good, I have substituted rutabegas for the turnip,many times, white turnip is not always available. My kids loved these as babbies and older,(omit chives/shallots for babbies). As a matter of interest, a rutabega is not a turnip nor is a turnip a rutabega. they are two different veggies often mistaken as the same. A turnip is white with a purple top and rutabega is yellow with a browish purple top, they each have their own flavour. (I believe a sweede is a rutabega)
