This was wonderful! So easy, and impressive to serve to company! I was roasting a cut of prime rib, and just put this along side- a wonderful side dish with next to no effort. I have a recipe I usually use for roasted potatoes, but it was nice to try something that had other vegetables as well. Thanks for posting!

WOW! These are great and really easy. I make them a similar way, but usually with onion. The fennel is a great replacement for the onion, and loved the addition of the mushrooms. I cut the recipe in half and did them in my counter-top oven. Thanks for this flavorful keeper.
