Try a no potato hash browns recipe with rutabaga. Rutabaga is a root vegetable you can use just like a potato, but it’s a healthier choice with less than half the calories and carbs of potato. Rutabaga is like a larger version of a turnip, but a bit sweeter. It’s related to cabbage, and has a very mild cabbage taste. Rutabaga is great in soups, and I love it simply seasoned and roasted in the oven. Rutabagas look sorta like turnips, but they’re usually bigger. Like most produce, when buying rutabaga choose one that’s firm and seems heavy for it’s size. Give rutabaga a try and let me know what you think.

How to make Hash Browns Recipe with Rutabaga
- Slice the end off the rutabaga and cut away the outer skin with a knife.
- Shred about 2 cups of rutabaga using a hand grater or food processor.
- Place rutabaga in a colander and lightly sprinkle with salt. Mix and let sit for a few minutes while you prepare the other ingredients, this will give the salt time to draw out the water.
- Squeeze excess water from the rutabaga and place in a bowl.
- Add green onion bottoms, peppers, egg, and seasoning. Mix well.
- Heat a skillet and oil on medium heat.
- Add in the rutabaga mix and cook until browned, turning occasionally.
- When near completion, stir in green onion bottoms and cheese.
That’s it!
