Ingredients

  • 1 large red onion, halved and sliced ¼-inch thick

  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 pound fresh hot (or sweet) Italian sausage links (bratwurst, chorizo, or any sausage that you like may be substituted)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Line a 13 x 18-inch baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil for easy clean-up, if desired.
  2. Directly on the baking sheet, toss the onion, carrots, and Brussels sprouts, oil, salt, pepper, and thyme until the vegetables are evenly coated. Place the sausages on the baking sheet, spacing them evenly around the pan, and arrange the vegetables as best you can in a single layer.

  • This is absolutely delicious! I’ve made it twice already and used different vegetables each time. We don’t eat pork so I used Trader Joe’s (precooked) chicken apple sausages once and their sweet Italian chicken sausages the other time! My husband loves it and it’s so easy!

  • As a busy student, this recipe is perfect for meal prep. I doubled it and now I have enough food for the next week! I was worried that there wouldn’t be enough flavor, but as usual Jenn was right. The juices from the sausages blend with the veggies, making for a delicious dish. Thank you for yet another awesome addition to the college cookbook!

  • This is an absolute keeper! Hubby loved it and commented how flavourful it was. I used Argentinian chorizo and it came out wonderful; very easy and delicious recipe.

  • My family absolutely loved this dish and have requested that I make it weekly. I appreciate the simplicity and speed that this recipe offers. It comes together quickly and is perfect for a weeknight meal. Thanks Jenn!

  • Used carrots, broccoli and red pepper because that’s what I had. Easy, adaptable, and very tasty…thank you for sharing!

  • Delicious! I’m in Colorado Springs so I did let it bake for 10 minutes more and it was perfect.

  • What cooking instructions would you suggest if I cut the sausage into chunks? Thanks

    • I wouldn’t really recommend cutting the sausage into chunks as uncooked, I don’t think it will slice very nicely. That said, if you want to try it that way, I’d reduce the roasting time by about 5 minutes.

    • I’ve cut them in half after cooking – perfect results.

  • Absolutely delicious! Posted my results on FB…it will now be a wonderful go to recipe😋

  • Hi Jenn,

    I don’t like the casing on the sausage. Would it be ok to remove the sausage from the casing? Would it still turn out good? Should I adjust the oven temp and cooking time if I remove it from the casing?

    Thanks

    • Hi Janelle, I think it might not look as nice but that it would be fine to remove the sausage from its casings. I’d keep the oven temp and cooking time the same. Please LMK how it turns out if you make it!

  • This was delicious. Par-boiled some sliced Yukon gold potatoes, added to the Brussels sprouts and red onion. Added pre-cooked sausages for the last fifteen minutes, turning them once. This is a keeper! Thanks, Jen!
