I make this recipe for birthday parties, and also bring it to potlucks. People like it as it is a relief from the mayo rich salads. It is also something different they usually haven’t tried before. It is also almost certain to be the only unique salad made from turnips! This recipe is a traditional Bulgarian recipe served with olives on the side.
Equipment
With Covid-19 getting worse and worse, we incorporated food safety guidelines into our recipes. Wash hands prior to cooking is one powerful instruction we are determined to include in all our recipes. Washing vegetables and fruits with a vegetable brush is another powerful instruction. We hope those 2 simple instructions in our recipe will help people fight with COVID-19 and also make their cooking habits food safely. If you do not have a food processor, just use a grater or cut up the carrots and turnips with a knife. We make many salads and other recipes with a food processor so this kitchen appliance is really handy.
