Rutabaga (Yellow Turnip or Swede) Apple Gratin
Per serving
Just look at the calories in this dish and it is very reasonable to make! I love this Winter dish, the apples give a balance to the rutabagas strong flavor, If you wish use turnips instead they are very similar. If you are not watching calories double the gratin
