1. Boil chopped potatoes and peeled and chopped turnips. 

2. When the potatoes and turnips are fork tender, drain water and add to a bowl. 

3. Using a hand masher, mash turnips and potatoes and add butter (or Earth Balance for non-dairy alternative) and milk (or MimicCreme for non-dairy alternative), salt and pepper. Add chives or garlic for even more flavor.
