This is a tasty and quick meal that was well received by my family. Easy, as well, to modify depending on which vegetables are lurking in the fridge!
I’ve made this recipe a couple of times and it never disappoints. It is tasty and so very easy. You can toss it together quickly and the clean up is swift. Perfect for a week night dinner when time is short and you want something delicious to eat. With all the new and interesting sausages out there you can mix it up along with different vegetables.
I’ve made this about three times now and it is a delicious meal, and it’s idiot proof. You are right about potatoes sticking, and even though I didn’t use foil they wanted to stick to the pan, so I did flip them. In fact I find I have to rotate everything around on the pan during roasting because the stuff nearest the edge seems to cook way faster than the stuff in the middle, also I turn the sausages so that they brown evenly. I know it says for 4 people but I find that my daughter and I finish 90% of whats on the pan. I guess that’s a recommendation, right?
This is very similar to another recipe I use that just has carrots and potatoes. This is very tasty, and it’s hard to beat roasted Brussels sprouts. It’s a great Sunday dinner! Warm, comfort food at its finest!
Great easy meal for a busy day and night! I used baby carrots and pre-cut broccoli. It was prepped and in the oven in less than 10 minutes. Added a salad to make a complete meal in a matter of minutes. Tasted very good and loved the crispiness of the sausage.
Made this last week using fully cooked spicy smoked Andouille sausage. Began by roasting just the vegetables for the first ten minutes, then added the sausage for the final 15 minutes. Easy, fast prep and clean up, and delicious both hot and for lunchtime leftovers. I can always depend on this site for satisfying meals using real ingredients. Thank you!
This recipe is a great method for using up that stuff in the fridge that really needs to get cooked before it is too late. I often have to sub in already cooked sausages because that is what is more available to me and I just add them towards the end of the vegetables cooking to heat them through and get a bit of browning. I have found that when I sub in halved or chopped potatoes, they are easier to get off the pan if I do not use the foil. They stick worse to the foil than to the pan! That may also be a tip that Jenn mentions in a different recipe and it thankfully stayed in my head. Super easy, family-friendly weeknight meal. Easy to prep ahead if needed.
Loved this recipe. My husband does not like brussel sprouts so I added potatoes instead. It is so simple and easy clean- up!!
Thank you for this delicious and oh so easy to prepare as well as easy cleanup recipe. I have made it on several occasions and with various vegetables and the results never disappoint. My family has a new favorite! It’s such a pleasure to serve and reap all the rewards in compliments.
Easy is right! I combined all the veggies in a bowl – but that’s for me to keep a light hand on the oil and a thorough coating – and I like the sear of the pan heat so no foil. The light char on the ingredients plus the juices from the meat and the oil combine nicely to give the finished product its own little umami. Already new combinations have been used with the sausage to use up veggies, try favorite spice combinations — but always quick, easy, and tasty. This is a keeper and in the weekly rotation!
