Five-Ingredient Fall Recipes

Roasting is the secret to bringing out celery root's sweetness. Cubed and cooked on a hot baking sheet, the vegetable turns golden brown on the outside and soft on the inside.

The thick shell of butternut squash is not nearly as intimidating as it sometimes seems. A good vegetable peeler is generally up to the task.
