Raw young turnips are sweet, with a tender-firm crunch. In this refreshing salad, lemon juice and tart, crispy apples accentuate both of these qualities. For a sweet treat, try tossing in some raisins, or top with chopped and freshly toasted pecans or walnuts.

1 cup peeled and grated raw young turnips (about 2 medium turnips)

1 cup peeled and grated tart apples (Granny Smith or greenings) (about 1

large apple)

1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley

3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Toss the turnips, apples, parsley, lemon juice, and vegetable oil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
