Turnip pie, take 2

The turnip pie turned out to be extremely filling and also tasty, so I'm trying another.  Here are my notes:

Put about 2q salted water on the stove to boil.

Coarsely chop and add:
1 turnip, larger than a grapefruit
1 large carrot

Boil 15 or 20 minutes (25 minutes total wasn't enough for the turnip)

Chop and add:
1 onion (I didn't chop fine enough)

Wait another 5 or 10 minutes.

Add an apple, cut in eighths.

Boil 5 more minutes then drain thoroughly and mash.

Add:

2 eggs
1 or 2 tsp dried parsely
1/2 tsp salt
black pepper
4.5 oz grated smoked cheddar

Stir, put in a buttered pie plate, cover with breadcrumbs.

Bake 1 hour at 325.

Edit:  Next time, more cheese.  It's still pretty crumbly, so the eggs may or may not be doing any good.
