Start by tossing loads of veggies and smoked sausage with olive oil and the best seasoning blend. This meal has it all: quick prep, practically nonexistent cleanup, inexpensive to make, and every single bite is loaded with flavor. Who says healthy can’t also be downright delicious?!

I hope you love this one-pan healthy dinner as much as my family does!

Variation ideas

This recipe is very forgiving and can easily be customized to fit your personal preferences. Below are some variation options:

Veggies: Use whatever veggies you like best, but keep in mind that root veggies typically take longer to bake. Because of that, you’ll want to cut them quite small so they’ll cook at the same rate as the other veggies. Some veggies that would work great in this dish are cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, green or red bell pepper, diced sweet potato, summer squash, zucchini, onion, and/or cherry tomatoes.
Swap potatoes: We love baby red potatoes, but baby gold (Yukon) potatoes are another favorite and work well in this meal. Whatever potatoes you use, make sure they are chopped into small pieces, so they’ll cook in the indicated amount of time.
Spice levels: If you like a hit of spice, add the optional red pepper flakes or sprinkle red pepper flakes on individual plates. If heat isn’t your thing, leave them out — no other changes necessary!
Add a sauce: While we love Sheet Pan Sausage and Veggies as is, but if you’d like some sort of sauce, I’d recommend a good basil pesto or similar herb sauce (like a chimichurri). For a creamy sauce, I’d recommend a cilantro–lime sauce (like the one on this Shrimp Tacos recipe). One other sauce option would be a balsamic glaze.
Serving suggestions: For a more filling meal, serve this dish over cooked quinoa (how to cook quinoa here) or cooked rice. Don’t forget to season the quinoa or rice with salt and pepper so the meal as a whole isn’t under seasoned when served together. To keep this meal low carb, use cauliflower rice as the base.

Let’s talk sausage

We prefer smoked turkey sausage when making Sheet Pan Sausage and Veggies. We love the flavor and that turkey is a bit healthier.
We’ve also used chicken sausage and thoroughly enjoy that. Aidells® is a chicken sausage brand we enjoy (not sponsored); they create a lot of different flavored (and well-seasoned) smoked sausages. Some of our favorites in this dish are the Italian Sausage, Bacon, Mushroom, and Swiss Cheese Sausage, and Sun-dried Tomato Sausage. Check out all the varieties here; it’s a fun way to enjoy this meal while also changing it up a bit!
Smoked beef sausage also works great in this dish!

My top tip for roasting veggies

Use a LARGE sheet pan. The more space the vegetables and sausage have to cook (and the less crowded they are), the better they roast.
