Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a deep square baking pan (about 9" X 9") with nonstick spray and set aside.

Peel potato and turnip, and thinly slice both into half-moon-shaped slices. Place in a bowl and toss gently to mix. Set aside.

In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine sour cream, soup, milk, and cheese wedges, breaking cheese wedges into pieces as you add them. Add garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well. Cover and microwave for 2 minutes, or until hot. Whisk until uniform in texture. Add 1/4 cup scallions and stir. Set aside.

Place 1/3rd of the potato and turnip slices in an even layer along the bottom of the baking pan. Top with 1/3rd of the cheese mixture, about 2/3 cup.

Repeat the layering step twice, for a total of 3 potato-turnip layers and 3 cheese-mixture layers.

Bake in the oven until potatoes and turnips are tender, 60 - 70 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup scallions. If you like, season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Enjoy!
