You can find me writing here about all things food, as well as other spots in print and across the web. Read Moreā¦

Okay, but what does one actually do with root veggies? Except put on a salad?
I’m a fan of roasting root vegetables. Toss them with a little olive oil with a few herbs (thyme, etc.) salt & pepper, place on a foil lined baking sheet pop in a 400 degree oven for about 40 min. Stirring at least halfway through until golden brown. I also like to use them in stews and soups. Parsnips are also great mashed with potatoes.
