Steps:
- Place 2 baking sheets in the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
- Cut all the vegetables into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Cut the onions through the base core to keep some of the layers in chunky pieces. Toss all the vegetables with garlic, olive oil and salt in large bowl. Season generously with pepper.
- Carefully remove the heated baking sheets from the oven, brush or drizzle with olive oil. Divide the vegetables evenly between the 2 pans, spreading them out to assure they don't steam while roasting. Roast the vegetables until tender and golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
ROOT VEGGIE BAKE
If you want an Indian twist on the classic root vegetable bake, then this is a scrumptious alternative. I found that leaving it overnight to cool and then slow cooking it the next day blended the flavors beautifully.

ROOT VEGETABLE ONE-DISH
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a lasagna pan or other 4-quart baking dish. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until sizzling, about 1 minute, then pour in the cream and add the bay leaves. Bring to a simmer and remove from the heat.
- Toss all of the root vegetables with the sage and thyme in a large bowl and season well with salt and pepper. Layer half of the vegetables in the prepared dish. Sprinkle with half of both cheeses. Layer the remaining vegetables on top. Remove the bay leaves from the hot cream and pour the cream over the vegetables. Sprinkle with the remaining Cheddar and Parmesan. Place the dish on a baking sheet and cover with foil (tenting it, so it doesn't touch the cheese). Bake until the vegetables are just tender and the cream is bubbly, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Remove the foil and continue to bake until golden on top, about 45 minutes more. Let rest 20 minutes before serving.

ROOT VEGETABLES CASSEROLE FOR WINTER
Saw a picture of this one in *Successful Farming* magazine's January 08 edition and simply HAD to post it for future reference. It looks and sounds so G-O-O-D! Use the veggies in any combination, as long as you end up with 3 cups (plus the carrots, etc.). The original recipe wanted you to boil the onions with the other veggies--but that just didn't appeal to me--so I added the step with sauteeing the onions. Use your favorite melty cheese, we prefer cheddar, the original recipe called for Gruyere. Don't you love having a choice? :rofl:

Tips:
- Choose the right root vegetables: For the best results, choose fresh, firm root vegetables that are free of bruises or blemishes. Some good options include carrots, potatoes, parsnips, turnips, and beets.
- Cut the vegetables evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If the vegetables are different sizes, cut the larger ones into smaller pieces so that they all cook at the same rate.
- Season the vegetables well: Don't be afraid to use plenty of herbs and spices to flavor the vegetables. Some good options include rosemary, thyme, garlic, and paprika.
- Roast the vegetables at a high temperature: This will help them caramelize and develop a delicious flavor. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.
- Stir the vegetables occasionally: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Serve the vegetables hot: Root vegetables are best served hot, so try to eat them as soon as they are done cooking.
Conclusion:
Root vegetable bakes are a delicious and healthy way to enjoy your favorite root vegetables. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Experiment with different combinations of vegetables, herbs, and spices to find your perfect recipe.
