Potatoes (I mean Turnips) and Onions

Potatoes are nightshade vegetables and are not allowed on Paleo.
A slightly different taste but fulfills the taste of potatoes without the calories or unhealthy side effects for those with auto immune disorders or painful joints. 
This recipe (total) is less than 100 calories (about 94) 5 grams fiber and 2 grams of protein!

1 cup of raw turnips peeled and cubed
1 cup of raw onions peeled and cubed ( we like Vidalia- a sweet onion grown in GA) 

Put onions and turnips in sauce pot, cover with water. Add salt to taste and boil till tender (15 minutes or more) 
Drain and Eat... 

You can also mash and serve as mashed potatoes.


Update: I made them the other night and threw in a bag of frozen green beans. ;)
