Turnips & fennel are braised until soft and packed with flavor. They are then pureed into spreadable goodness with white beans, nuts & cheese. The easiest way to make this is to start with leftovers of the Braised Fennel, Turnips & White Beans. Simply double the recipe, blend and a spread will be ready for lunches and snacks.

A yogurt herb dressing laces through spring greens, slivered beets and radishes with a handful of slivered almonds, feta and golden raisins for good measure. Mix and match the vegetables you have available and eliminate the raisins or nuts if they are not for you.
