Description
A quick, one-pan dinner featuring compliant sausage and roasted vegetables, perfect for busy weeknights and Whole30 diets.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 pounds chicken or turkey sausage (sugar-free, compliant)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 large heads broccoli florets (about 600g)
- 2 medium red bell peppers (about 300g)
- 1 large red onion (about 200g)
- 2 medium zucchini (about 400g)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line two half-sheet pans with parchment paper.
- Wash and thoroughly dry all vegetables. Moisture prevents proper roasting.
- Chop broccoli into bite-sized florets, slice bell peppers into 1-inch strips, cut red onion into wedges, and slice zucchini into half-moons.
- Place chopped vegetables in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
- Slice sausage links into ½-inch rounds or diagonal pieces.
- Spread seasoned vegetables in a single layer on one sheet pan, ensuring they are not crowded.
- Place sausage slices on the second sheet pan.
- Roast vegetables for 15 minutes. Remove pan and stir/flip vegetables to ensure even browning.
- Add the sausage pan to the oven. Roast for another 10-15 minutes, or until sausage is cooked through and browned, and vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Remove from oven, taste, and adjust salt if needed. Serve immediately.
Notes
Ensure vegetables are dry before roasting to prevent steaming. Do not overcrowd the pan; use two pans if necessary for even browning. Check sausage label for sugar or fillers to ensure Whole30 compliance. Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to 4 days but do not freeze well due to vegetable texture changes.
