Oven-roasting root vegetables is a delicious way to get the most out of these earthy treats, bringing out their subtle sweetness. Serving them over endive with a homemade vinaigrette is just a bonus! —Peter Halferty, Corpus Christi, Texas

Ingredients

  • 1 pound medium fresh mushrooms, halved
  • 8 small carrots, peeled and halved lengthwise
  • 2 cups cubed peeled celery root (about 1/2 pound)
