Ingredient Notes
1. Potatoes:
Red potatoes hold their shape well, but you can use Yukon gold or even sweet potatoes for extra sweetness.
2. Carrots:
Baby carrots work fine if you don’t feel like peeling and chopping.
3. Green Beans:
Please make sure they’re fresh for that crisp-tender bite.
4. Sausage:
I love using chicken apple sausage for its sweet-savoury flavour, but you can substitute it with chicken spinach sausage, turkey sausage, or even smoked sausage.
Herbs: Rosemary adds an earthy touch, but thyme or parsley works too.
Instructions
1. Prep the oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line your sheet pan with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
2. Prep the veggies:
Add potatoes, carrots, and onion slices to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with garlic salt, herb mix, and fresh rosemary. Toss until evenly coated.
3. Start roasting:
Spread the seasoned veggies on the sheet pan in a single layer. Roast for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through.
4. Add sausage and beans:
After 20 minutes, add the sliced chicken apple sausage and green beans to the pan. Toss everything lightly so the flavors mix.
5. Finish roasting:
Place the sheet pan back in the oven for another 15 minutes, or until potatoes are golden and the sausage is lightly browned.
6. Serve hot:
Remove from the oven and serve straight from the pan.
👉 Tip: Cut the sausage into thick slices so it holds up nicely in the oven without drying out.
