About me: I collect cookbooks and love to cook and try new recipes. I tested recipes for Leite's Culinaria for almost eight years. I learned to cook from many good southern cooks including my Mom, Dad, several Aunts and my Grandmothers. My children and husband also like to cook and try new foods and recipes. My son still lives with us but our daughter is married. She often visits to cook with me. We are adventuresome eaters willing to try new things.

These are easy to make and bursting with flavor from the fresh sage leaf and bacon. I have a pot of sage so it came in handy to make these. My daughter has made them several times for her and her hubby and they love them. I finally got to try them and I love them too.

I'm not really a big fan of cooked turnips but I do like them roasted with other root veggies. My daughter and I couldn't decide if we liked these or not. The bites with more parm tasted a bit better than the other bites. Our turnips were a bit strong so maybe that was what turned us off. I'm glad I tried it but not sure I'll be making it again. Hubby thought it was horrible.
