Hi Jen, How easy is this? I love one pan dinners and this is great for cleaning out your refrigertor. Mix up the type of sausage, mixup the veggies – it can be different everytime you make it and it is truly delicious with the veggies getting extra flavorful from the sausage. Add a small salad and dinner is done! Thank you.
So good and easy! I love all your recipes. Thank you!
Perfect Winter comfort food. My wife and I love all in one Dinners, and this fits the Bill perfectly. The Brussels Sprouts roasted with the sausage are excellent. The essence of the sausage drippings with the vegetables keeps everything moist and delicious. Love this. Thx for another keeper recipe Jenn👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Made this for my husband and myself as a quick, pantry-emptying meal on a busy weeknight. I used carrot and yellow potatoes (all that remained in the pantry at the time) and had fairly low hopes since I generally find single-pan meals disappointing and same-tasting. This one was delicious – spicy, rich and satisfying. A great addition to my ever-growing list of go-to recipes from Once Upon a Chef.
This is a great recipe to build on. We buy sausage grillers from our local butcher and add whatever veggies we have on hand. Last night it was fennel, onions and squash.
Super quick and easy to prepare, yet so delicious! The right combination of flavors, especially when made with hot sausage links. Add sweet potatoes for an added texture and flavor. One of my family’s favorites!
So easy and so good! I’ve made several times just adding what I have on hand.
This recipe is delicious!! So easy to make in a jiffy, easy cleanup Yea! Great for someone limiting their carb intake.
We have this at least once a week. We’ve also used chicken in place of the sausage for variety. Delicious!!!!
Once Upon A Chef is my go-to site when I do my weekly meal planning. You can always count on Jen’s recipes to be delicious, interesting and fairly easy. This one is definitely a winner. I especially love the fact that it all comes together on one cookie sheet, so it’s fast to prepare and even faster to clean up the dishes afterward. I had brats in the freezer so used those. They really gave the veggies a sumptuous flavor. Everyone loved it and went back for seconds.
Oops, I gave this recipe five stars but for some reason, it’s showing up as four stars. How do I edit this to show the correct rating? Thanks.
Thanks for taking the time to let me know — I just updated it! 🙂
This has become one of my go-to-recipes for weekdays. It’s super easy, tasty and a good balance of protein and vegetables. Thank you for always posting flavorful and easy recipes for busy parents!!
