Ingredients

The full recipe is at the bottom of this page, but here's a quick overview of what you'll need & how to make it in 3 steps:

• 12 ounces chicken or turkey sausage links, cut into slices (I use chicken and apple sausage) 
• 2 cups peeled & diced sweet potatoes
• 1 pound brussels sprouts, halved
• 1 red bell pepper, chopped  
• ¼ cup olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• ½ teaspoon pepper 
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ¼ teaspoon onion powder

How to Make Sheet Pan Sausage and Veggies

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. If preferred, line a large sheet pan with foil for easy clean up.

Step 2: Add Everything to Sheet Pan

Add the sausage, sweet potatoes, brussels sprouts and bell pepper to the sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with seasonings. Toss to coat. Arrange the ingredients in one layer and push the sausage down so that it touches the pan (this will help it brown and cook). 

Step 3: Cook & Enjoy!

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 - 25 minutes, flipping halfway. The vegetables should be tender and the sausage should be cooked through.

What Size Sheet Pan Should I Use?

You should use a sheet pan that's at least a 'half sheet' size: I use this one that's about 17" x 12." You can also use a larger sheet pan if you have one.

How Do I Know When It's Done?

You'll know your sheet pan is done cooking when the vegetables are tender and the sausage is cooked though. You can pierce a sweet potato with your fork to test for tenderness: it should be soft all the way through.
