Every holiday table deserves a rich and cheesy holiday gratin. Rutabagas are a medium-carb root vegetable, offering more sweetness and structure than turnips and zucchinis but substantially fewer carbs than potatoes, just right. In this recipe, we slice rutabagas thin and mix them thoroughly with a cheesy cream sauce, ensuring that every little surface makes contact with the cream. Add a touch of fresh thyme for a more fragrant holiday treat.
