Sheet Pan Veggie and Sausage Bake Recipe Walkthrough

Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures everything cooks evenly from the get-go.

In a large bowl, toss in your sliced sausages, broccoli florets, bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, and onion slices. You’ll want a big enough bowl to really mix everything up without making a mess.

Drizzle the olive oil over the mixture. Then, sprinkle the thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Use your hands or a big spoon to toss everything together until each piece is well-coated with the seasoning and oil.

Spread the mixture out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This not only prevents sticking but also makes cleanup a breeze.

Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes. Halfway through, give everything a good stir to ensure even cooking. You're looking for tender veggies and sausages that are cooked through.

Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. This brief rest lets the flavors settle and makes it easier to serve.
