Creamy Celery Root and Pearl Onions

For several years I made creamed onions for Thanksgiving, but I wanted to change the recipe. I decided to add celery root. Celery root is perfect with the onions, and the creamy sauce is addicting! I like to add additional fresh ground pepper before serving. —Tina Mirilovich, Johstown, Pennsylvania
