This recipe was the trifecta! 1) super simple to make 2) very tasty 3) easy to clean up!
Thank you Jenn
Loved this! Used hot Italian sausage and cut up potatoes, celery, frozen broccoli florets, carrots, and red onions. Perfect week night meal. Served with homemade applesauce. Cooked for 30 minutes because I was worried the potatoes wouldn’t be soft enough, but all went well! Thanks!
Made this for supper tonight. It came out great. I had longer sweet Italian sausage links. Decided to cook them whole. It only took the 25 minutes. My son usually grills the brussel sprouts but there were some really tiny ones. I put them aside to try sheet pan method. Worked great. Added carrots and onions and baby potatoes. Will be doing this again. Thanks for a great recipe.
Hi Jenn I am looking forward to making this, question can i use venison sausage and if so does it make a difference in the cooking time?
Hi Melissa, Venison sausage will work here. I’ve never cooked with it, so I’m not sure if the timing will be different. Just make sure you check to ensure it’s fully cooked before serving.
I made this several weeks ago. I thought it was delicious and I had plenty of leftovers for it he next week at work!
Jenn I plan on making an italian buffet & would like to include this switching out veggies to peppers & onions. I would like to cut the italian sausages into about 3 pieces since there will be other foods. Would you recommend cutting the sausages in pieces before or after cooking? If you recommend cutting before cooking would I reduce the cooking time? Thankyou for any help you can provide. Btw I have cooked this recipe many times & it is delicious! 😋
Hi Dana, That sounds delish! I would cut the sausages after cooking. Enjoy 🙂
My kids love this, they cheer when I tell them I’m making it! It’s incredible that something so easy can be so good!
Great recipe! Super easy to improvise with different vegetables, sausages and even spices.
I really liked this recipe!! Very tasty and satisfying. Everything cooked up together nicely and all the vegies were equally tender. I DID quarter the brussel sprouts to help with that. Now, I wouldn’t call this a super easy recipe, as there is a lot of vegie slicing. But totally worth it. I ended up roasting mine for about 40 minutes. And instead of adding potatoes to the pan, try this fabulous side dish of “Crispy Smashed Potatoes “. It went really well with the meal…https://plantyou.com/crispy-smashed-potatoes/
I agree, the roasting time is closer to 40-50 minutes.
I made this almost exactly to the recipe, just had more brussels sprouts (I had to use them up). It was really, really good and really, really easy to make! My husband and son also loved it; I’ll be sure to make it again!
