Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/2 medium onion (minced very finely)
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt (or more, to taste)
  • black pepper to taste
  • 1 large turnip
  • 1 bell pepper (I used half a red, half a green)
  • 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
  • cumin (optional, to taste)
  • oregano (optional, to taste)

Instructions

  • Add olive oil to a frying pan, and add minced onions. Sautė over medium-low heat until onions are soft and translucent. Add sea salt and pepper to season the onions well.
  • Cut the turnip in small cubes. After the onions are cooked, add the turnip, stir the onions and turnips to mix, then let it cook without stirring for 10 minutes, to allow the turnips to brown.
  • Add the bell peppers, and optional seasonings. I sometimes add extra seasoning, but mostly prefer just salt, pepper, and balsamic.
  • Once the turnips are fully cooked, and peppers have softened, add 2 teaspoons of balsamic vinegar, and allow to cook down and thicken for 1-2 minutes.
  • Serve with eggs or sausage for a complete breakfast.
