Yields: 4 servings
Prep Time: 10 Mins | Cook Time: 30 Mins
Ingredients:
1 lb sausage (Italian-style, cooked and crumbled or sliced into 1/2-inch rounds)
1 head broccoli, cut into florets
2 bell peppers (any color), chopped into 1-inch pieces
1 onion, roughly chopped
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 400∘F (200∘C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. On the baking sheet, combine the sliced sausage, broccoli florets, chopped bell peppers, onion, and cherry tomatoes.
3. Drizzle everything with olive oil. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure all ingredients are coated.
4. Spread the mixture in a single layer on the baking sheet.
5. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until vegetables are tender-crisp and slightly caramelized, and sausage is heated through. Flip the ingredients halfway through cooking for even browning.
6. Serve hot. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Dad Tips:
1. Get the kids involved! Let them spread the veggies onto the baking sheet.
2. Use chicken sausage for a leaner meal.
3. Spice it up add chorizo, or hot italian sausage!
