Best 7 Root Veggie Bake Recipes

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.

OVEN-ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES

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 VEGETABLE GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 13-by-10-by-2 1/2-inch baking dish.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium heat, add the onion and fennel and cook for 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned and tender. Add the garlic and cook for one minute.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the onion mixture, sweet potatoes, celery root, Yukon Gold potatoes, cream, chicken stock, Gruyere, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and press lightly so the vegetables lie flat all the way to the edge. Combine the bread crumbs and 2 tablespoons of olive oil and distribute evenly on top. Bake uncovered for 1 1/2 hours, until the vegetables are very tender when tested with a small knife and the top is browned and bubbly. Allow to set for 15 minutes and serve hot.
• Make ahead: Bake in advance and reheat while the turkey rests, or assemble the dish, cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours, then bake before serving.

ROOT VEGETABLES CASSEROLE FOR WINTER

Steps:

• Place chopped vegs in 2 cups water in saucepan & boil; simmer until tender (cooking time will vary depending on which vegs you use--check for tenderness at about 12 minutes); drain.
• While that's bubbling, saute onions in butter; set aside.
• Preheat oven to 375; grease a 1-quart casserole baking dish; set aside.
• To veggies, add nutmeg and S & P; then mash or beat until consistency you appreciate--you should have small lumps--unless you like it glue-y!
• Add sauteed onions, crumbs and eggies; mix in lightly.
• Spoon into prepped pan; bake uncovered for 35 minutes; sprinkle with cheese, bake additional 5-10 minutes (browned & knife comes out clean).

• Roast vegetables in preheated oven for 20 minutes, then stir, return to oven, and continue cooking until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes more.

ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Peel vegetables (optional) and cut them into 1- to 2-inch chunks, put them in a baking pan and toss with the oil and a sprinkling of salt and pepper.
• Put the vegetables in the oven and roast without stirring for 20 minutes, then check. If they look dry and are sticking to the pan, drizzle with more oil. Continue roasting, stirring or turning the vegetables once, for another 20 minutes or so. Stir in the herbs, then return the pan to the oven for another 20 to 40 minutes, until crisp. Remove from the oven. Garnish with rosemary or thyme.
