Prepare the vegetables: peel and cut into large chunks. Peel and cut the pear also into large chunks, discarding the core. Lay the vegetables and pear out on the sheet in a single layer and coat them thoroughly with the oil. Roast in the middle of the oven 35-40 min, until the vegetables are softened and lightly browned.
