Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Peel the turnips and cut them into thin fry-shaped strips.
Step 3
In a large bowl, toss the turnip strips with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Step 4
Spread the turnip fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap to ensure even cooking.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
Step 6
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the hot fries.
Step 7
Return the fries to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Step 9
Serve the low carb cheesy fries hot, topped with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped chives for garnish.
