Very good! I'll definitely make it again. I like the health component, too. I used honey instead of sugar, and I added a half teaspoon of salt. I found I did need to add the milk. I like the idea of a previous poster to serve it with pork. I think it would be good with roast chicken also. I wouldn't serve it with beef, a little too heavy for a heavy meat.

This is my first experience cooking and eating rutabaga. I hate it when people say a recipe is bland, but this one truly is. It seemed to need something...maybe salt? Neither my husband nor I cared for it.

This has an excellent taste and consistancy! My husband loved it. I served it with baked chicken.

This is a very good recipe. I made this into a main dish by sauteeing a large red onion and 8 ounces of mushrooms. I also cut the recipe in half and used 2 rutabagas and 3 carrots. I cooked the diced rutabagas and 2 of the chopped carrots in boiling water for 20 minutes. After draining, I folded in the onion and mushroom mixture with the remaining uncooked carrot (which I grated). I added 2 tablespoons of margarine and about 2 tablespoons of soy milk. The entire mixture was placed in a casserole and baked (covered) in an oven at 350F for about 20 minutes.

It was good but needs getting used to. Your brain tells you mashed potatotes. I will make this again. Maybe play up the sweetness.

I always add diced apple with a little sugar to rutabaga before mashing. It adds a great flavor even for those who dislike "beggies".

Just awful! really truly not palatable, lacked flavor, poor consistency, raw carrot taste. If you have the rutabagas already and you've had this kind of thing before and liked, that's the only way I could see anyone eating this stuff. I can't get the taste out of my mouth!

I found this recipe to be OK. My friend and I thought it was edible, but pretty bland. I think if we had some meat along with it, it might have been a little better.
