Turnip Sandwiches with Horseradish Sauce

This post is not exactly a recipe. It’s an idea for an easy and quick appetizer; turnip sandwiches stuffed with horseradish sauce and cream cheese, garnished with peppers of 3 different colors. It is spicy, but not too much, so even those who do not like spicy foods can try it.

The horseradish sauce I used is store bought. Unfortunately I have not found a horseradish root in Greece, so I couldn’t make a homemade sauce, so far; and I really like it so much! As for the turnip, I used the one in the photo. I do not know if it has any particular name, usually all these roots, in Greece, are called turnips. If anyone knows, I would be very happy if he lets me know. I believe these sandwiches will be delicious if you use radishes, as well.

I cut the turnip slices with a cookie cutter, to be even. It’s better to make them small, they would be eaten more easily. My cookie cutter has a diameter of 4.5 cm, but the sandwiches can be made even smaller.
