I was impressed with a roasted root vegetable dish at my new favorite restaurant (Farmacia, found during the last snow day and mentioned in a previous post), and I decided to guess how to replicate it--except I added a few more veggies. Owen assures me that I did manage it quite well. What I did is very easy and anyone who wants to can try it.

Slice any or all of the above vegetables (I used all of them) into thin (1/4") slices. You can then cut the larger circles into halves or quarters. Put veggies into a casserole dish or a roasting pan. Salt and pepper to taste. Add a few drizzles of olive oil and stir veggies to evenly coat with oil. Put on a lid or cover with foil. Bake at 375° for about an hour. Stir after every 20 min. or so to check. Turnips were the last to get soft for me. Works great as a side with a roast or as a main dish with some lighter mains in addition.
Happy seasonal eating!
