Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 2 cups baby potatoes, halved
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup onions, cut into 1-inch chunks
- 2 cups small mushrooms, halved or quartered
- 1 cup baby carrots
Seasonings & Oil
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Protein
- 1 pound sweet Italian sausage links, sliced on the bias
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and allow it to fully preheat to ensure even cooking.
- Prepare the vegetables and seasonings: In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved baby potatoes, broccoli florets, chunked onions, halved or quartered mushrooms, and baby carrots. Drizzle with olive oil, then season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Toss everything thoroughly so the vegetables are evenly coated with the oil and spices.
- Arrange on baking sheet: Spread the seasoned vegetables out in a single, even layer on a baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them to promote proper roasting. Scatter the sliced sweet Italian sausage throughout the pan among the vegetables.
- Bake the dish: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes. Halfway through baking, shake or stir the pan gently to prevent sticking and ensure the ingredients cook evenly and develop a nice roasted texture.
- Serve and enjoy: Once the vegetables are tender and lightly browned and the sausage is cooked through, remove the pan from the oven. Serve the baked Italian sausage and veggies hot for a delicious, no-fuss meal.
Notes
- You can substitute sweet Italian sausage with spicy Italian sausage if you prefer a bit of heat.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or zucchini for variety.
- To save time, use pre-cut vegetables or frozen broccoli florets.
- If you want extra crispiness, broil for 2-3 minutes at the end watching carefully to avoid burning.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container and reheated for up to 3 days.
