We do that too. We always cook everything from scratch. But we have always used my mother-in-law’s recipes. Now we are buying all new cookbooks. We have always been perimeter shoppers. Some times I miss potatoes.

We use turnips a lot now, they are lower in carbs/starch. I made turnip au gratin the other day. Tasted a LOT like potato au gratin.

That's a great idea, thanks! I do so love my potatoes! Now if I can just find a replacement for my pintos....

Try Parsnips!

Much better than turnips!
