WHAT YOU NEED-

  • Sausage– This recipe calls for smoked sausage or kielbasa, either pork, chicken or turkey will work great. Using precooked sausage makes this recipe all the easier!
  • Peppers– You can use any color bell pepper you prefer! Red, orange, yellow or even green can be used. Mini bell peppers are also an option.
  • Onion– Either sweet, cooking or red onion can be used. I love using red onions for all my cooking!
  • Zucchini– Adding zucchini gives more flavors and makes this dish heartier.
  • Potatoes– I love adding baby potatoes to this sheet pan recipe! You can use either baby red, yellow, or a mix of both. Be sure to use baby potatoes, they will cook through during the cook time.
  • Oil– You want to drizzle the veggies and sausage in olive oil to give them a crispy texture without them getting dry. You can swap olive oil or canola, vegetable, avocado or any other preferred oil.
  • Flavors– To season this sheet pan dish, this recipe calls for salt, pepper, garlic powder, Italian, and paprika. You can use any of your go-to seasoning blends, I love using the Gourmet Seasoning.

No! You can leave out the potatoes and make it with just veggies and sausage and serve it with a side of Air Fryer Roasted Potatoes, Cilantro Lime Rice or creamy Mashed Potatoes!

What size sheet pan do I use?

Be sure to use a large sheet pan, so that the ingredients lay flat and don’t overlap each other. I recommend using a 15×17 sheet pan!

Can I make this vegetarian?

Yes! This can totally be a vegetarian dish, just opt out of adding sausage.

Will the potatoes cook in time?

If you use baby potatoes or cube the potatoes into small even pieces, then the potatoes will for sure cook through.

Do I have to use pre-cooked sausage?

For this recipe, you want to use smoked sausage, like kielbasa! Using pre-cooked sausage makes this dish cook faster.
