I douse it with olive oil before roasting.

Mashed carrots and turnips is the only way to get me to eat turnips.

 

Steam carrots and turnips, then mash mix in a little salt/pepper and a bit of butter.  Turnips are a pain to cut, so I usually make a huge lot and freeze them.

Cook steel cut oats until done.

Dice an apple. Sprinkle with a little brown sugar. Microwave for a minute or so until soft and the brown sugar melts. Mix into oatmeal.

Grate fresh cinnamon over oatmeal.  Add a little more brown sugar if you like.
