During the first year Ryan and I were dating, I was invited to his parents house for Easter Dinner. Up to that point, I had never eaten pure turnips before, only the traditional southern turnip greens. So, when I saw…

This recipe is near and dear to my heart because it comes from one of my closest and dearest friends, Michelle. Michelle and I are kindred spirits. She is the funniest woman I have ever met in my life. Sometimes…
