This sheet pan sausage and veggies recipe is a quick and nutritious dinner made in just one pan, with minimal prep and cleanup. It’s perfect for busy weeknights, meal prep, or when you need a satisfying meal packed with protein and roasted vegetables.

Top Tip: For perfectly roasted veggies with caramelized edges, use a arge sheet pan and spread everything in a single layer to avoid overcrowding the pan (so they caramelize instead of steam).

I’m officially calling this sheet pan sausage and veggies recipe the easiest recipe on WMM. It takes a few minutes of prep and you have a healthy meal for days.

When you want to make a quick and healthy dinner, convenience is super important. Because of this, I purposefully chose veggies that were quick and easy to chop so you could chop and get these on the pan and in the oven in a short amount of time.

Ingredients & Substitutions

ingredients for sheet pan sausage and veggies on a counter.
  • 🫑 Veggies: Use zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, mushrooms, and red onion for a flavorful mix. Swap in broccoli, Brussels sprouts, carrots, sweet potatoes, or asparagus if preferred.
  • 🌭 Sausage: Kielbasa, smoked sausage, smoked turkey sausage, or pre-cooked chicken sausage works best, but turkey sausage, smoked sausage, or plant-based sausage are great alternatives.
  • 🧄 Seasoning: Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper create a simple, well-balanced flavor. Feel free to add red pepper flakes for heat or swap in Cajun or taco seasoning for variety.
  • 🥄 Olive oil: Helps the veggies roast evenly and prevents sticking. Avocado oil or melted ghee are good swaps.

Tip! Because veggies are so versatile, you can customize this recipe to your liking. If you don’t see or have a veggie in this recipe you can easily swap it out for something else like broccoli or carrots.

Notes

Tip for Extra Caramelized Vegetables. For even more caramelized veggies, preheat the sheet pan while the oven preheats. Make sure not to overlap the veggies or you’ll end up with steamed veggies rather than caramelized. Use two sheet pans if needed.
Foil or Parchment. I love the way the pan gives a golden crusty color and flavor to the veggies, but to reduce the cleanup even more, roast the veggies on foil or parchment paper.
Recipe update. This recipe was updated to include only the Italian seasoning. Here is the original spice blend if desired: 2 teaspoons dried basil, 2 teaspoons garlic powder, 1 Tablespoon onion powder, 1 Tablespoon dried thyme
Fridge: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Freezer: Freeze in portioned containers for up to 2 months.
Reheat: Microwave for 1-2 minutes or reheat in a skillet over medium heat for the best texture. You can also air fry the sausage and veggies at 375 for 2-3 minutes, or until heated through.

    We LOVE this meal — and it’s SO customizable. We’ve done it with zucchini and summer squash and carrots and asparagus and peppers and onions and broccoli and other veggies. We love ALDIs ‘never any’ tomato and basil sausages with it. It’s also a winner with my father-in-law who has health struggles and is having a hard time finding healthy dishes he likes. We make this at least monthly.

    Delicious & easy

  4. Christina says:

    It appears that this has cilantro, but I don’t see that included in the ingredients. Did I miss it?

    1. Molly Thompson says:

      Hey Christina! No you didn’t! I added a few fresh herbs to the top of mine before I took the pictures and ate it but it isn’t a must-have for this dish. If you have extra herbs you want to add to the top you can!

      1. Christina says:

        My husband LOVES cilantro. When he say the picture, his comment was “needs more cilantro”! Looking forward to trying his soon!
