How to Serve This roasted sausage veggie pan Recipe

This roasted sausage veggie pan is delicious served on its own as a complete meal. You can also serve it over rice, quinoa, or pasta for a heartier dish.

I often like to serve it with a side of crusty bread for soaking up all the delicious juices. A dollop of ricotta cheese or a drizzle of balsamic glaze also adds a touch of elegance.

How to Store This roasted sausage veggie pan Recipe

Leftover roasted sausage and vegetables can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

For longer storage, you can freeze the leftovers. Let them cool completely before transferring them to a freezer safe container. They can be frozen for up to 2 months.

To reheat, spread the sausage and vegetables on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) until heated through. You can also reheat them in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave.

Tips to Make This roasted sausage veggie pan Recipe

  • For extra flavor, try using different types of sausage, such as kielbasa, chorizo, or andouille.
  • Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet. Overcrowding can cause the vegetables to steam instead of roast, resulting in soggy vegetables. If necessary, use two baking sheets.
  • Cut the vegetables into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.
  • For a spicier dish, add more red pepper flakes or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • Before you get started with this recipe, have you considered trying Roasted Seasonal Spring Vegetables?

Helpful Notes for This roasted sausage veggie pan Recipe

If you don’t have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs. Use about 1 teaspoon of dried herbs for every tablespoon of fresh herbs.

Feel free to add other vegetables to the mix, such as Brussels sprouts, carrots, potatoes, or sweet potatoes. Just make sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly.

For a vegetarian version, you can substitute the sausage with plant based sausage or tofu.

Use parchment paper or foil to prevent sticking.

Variation of This roasted sausage veggie pan Recipe

For a Mediterranean twist, add Kalamata olives, feta cheese, and a sprinkle of oregano.
In the fall, use butternut squash, apples, and cranberries for a seasonal variation.

If you enjoy a bit of heat, add jalapenos or use hot Italian sausage. Another variation of this sheet pan sausage dinner is to add potatoes.

For a low carb option, omit the potatoes and use more non starchy vegetables.

What vegetables go well with roasted sausage?

Bell peppers, onions, zucchini, broccoli, and potatoes are all excellent choices for roasting with sausage. Choose vegetables that have similar roasting times for the best results.

How long does it take to roast sausage and vegetables?

Typically, it takes about 20-30 minutes to roast sausage and vegetables at 400°F (200°C). Make sure the sausage is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

Can I prepare roasted sausage veggie pan ahead of time?

Yes, you can chop the vegetables and sausage ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to cook, simply toss them with oil and seasonings and roast as directed.
