Recipe ideas for mini turnips? I've never cooked with them before.

I got a bunch of lovely mini turnips from my CSA, but have not the faintest idea what to do with them - I've eaten and enjoyed turnips many times, but never cooked them. please help!

I cut them in half and roasted them in oil and salt, cut side down. They were delicious. The greens were good too.

I love these small turnips, and have also gotten them in recent CSA deliveries. Last night I chopped some, raw, to add to a lentil salad with garden radishes and chives. A week ago I grilled them--halved and lightly tossed with oil. Really delicious!

Pickled turnips.
See David Lebowitz, foodnetwork, epicurious for recipes. Easy and good.

I get them from a local farmer and they are so sweet and delicious I just eat them raw in salads.
