This smoked sausage and vegetables sheet pan dinner is an easy, family-friendly meal made with simple ingredients and minimal prep. Sliced smoked sausage and fresh vegetables roast together on one pan, creating a hearty weeknight dinner with big flavor and easy cleanup. It’s perfect for busy nights when you want a filling meal without a lot of extra dishes.
Slice the sausage (about ½-inch thick slices). Chop the red, yellow, and green bell peppers. Slice the zucchini and cut the red onion into small wedges.
Spread all the chopped vegetables and cut sausage on the sheet pan in an even layer.
Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the sausage is browned and the vegetables are tender with golden edges.
Optional: garnish with parsley.
Notes
Vegetable swaps: This recipe is very flexible. Green beans, zucchini, carrots, Brussels sprouts, or cauliflower all roast well and can be used in place of broccoli or peppers.
Potato tips: Cut potatoes into small, even pieces so they finish cooking at the same time as the sausage. If using sweet potatoes, keep the cubes slightly smaller.
Sausage options: Fully cooked smoked sausage works best. Pork, beef, turkey, or chicken sausage are all good choices.
Make it ahead: You can slice the sausage and chop the vegetables up to 24 hours in advance. Store them separately in the refrigerator until ready to cook.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Reheating: Reheat in the microwave or warm in a 350°F oven until heated through.
Freezing: Freezing is possible, but the vegetables may soften once thawed. For best texture, this recipe is best enjoyed fresh or within a few days.
