Ingredients

1 Onion
2 Turnips
3 Carrots
1 Cup Green Peas
1 Jar Pickles
1 Cup Greek Yogurt
1/2 Cup Mayonnaise
1/4 Cup Pickle Water

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Peel the turnips entirely. Cut all the turnips into bite sized pieces with a sharp knife, as regular potatoes typically do. At the same time, cut fresh carrots and place them all into a bowl ready for cooking.
Cut onion and all the pickles into small tiny squares and place them aside. At the same time, prepare your other ingredients.
In a big glass bowl, add yogurt with mayonnaise and approximately 1/3rd of a cup of liquid left from your pickle jar. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and mix.
Place turnips and carrots into a cooking pot, add boiling water, bring to a boil and let it cook until tender for 15 minutes maximum.
Once your carrots and turnips are boiled, strain them through a strainer and pour a very cold pot of water to shock them, so they immediately stop the cooking process.
Add all remaining ingredients in a large mixing bowl, such as the onion, pickles, and green peas. Pour the whole dressing you have stored in the fridge.
Using two spatulas, gently mix the ingredients and salad dressing together. Refrigerate for at least 2 to 3 hours before you are ready to serve.

Notes

Adding the Pickle liquid adds lots of great flavor to it but also will liquidize the dressing. Be careful and rather add a bit at first and if needed more, do that later.
Do not let the Turnips and carrots over boil it, otherwise, they will turn mushy. I always take a piece after about 10 minutes to try if it is almost done and decide on the cooking time afterward.
Season with salt and pepper if it needs a bit more flavor.
If the dressing is too thick, add more pickle juice and mix.
Not sour enough? Add more pickles in.
Turnips can also be roasted in a single layer on a baking sheet or steamed.
