12-14ounceskielbasa or smoked sausagesliced in 1/2-inch pieces
1/4cupolive oil
1tablespoonItalian seasoning
1/2teaspoongarlic powder
Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 F. Lightly grease or line a very large rimmed baking sheet or pan with parchment paper or foil and set aside. I use an extra large 21x15-inch rimmed cookie sheet. If you don't have a sheet pan that large, you can use two smaller pans.
It's important that all of the veggies are in pieces that are about the same size so that they cook at the same rate. Please check out the notes below the recipe about the size of the veggies.
Place the veggies and sausage pieces on the sheet pan.
Drizzle with olive oil, and then toss to coat everything in oil.
Spread everything out into an even layer in the pan. The veggies need to be spread out because if the veggies are on top of each other, they won't roast properly.
Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and garlic powder.
Bake for 15 minutes.
Flip the veggies and sausage over, and continue cooking for about 15 minutes more, or until the veggies are desired level of doneness.
Remove from oven, and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
Notes
Broccoli: The florets should be about 1/2-inch in size. I usually include the stems, but you can either include or omit the stems.
Cauliflower: The florets should be about 1/2-inch in size.
Carrots: Regular carrots that have been peeled and cut into 1/2-inch chunks will also work. I've also used whole baby carrots.
Baby potatoes: Baby potatoes are sometimes called creamer potatoes. You can use gold, yellow, or red baby potatoes. The size of the potatoes can vary quite a bit. If you get a tiny potato, you may need to just halve it. If you get a large potato, you may need to cut it into more pieces. The important thing is that the pieces are about the same size.
Bell peppers: Feel free to use any color bell pepper that you like.
Kielbasa: Beef smoked sausage, kielbasa, turkey kielbasa, or a similar meat will work well.
Seasoning: I don't add any additional salt to the recipe as I find it to be salt enough with the kielbasa and parmesan. However, if you would like, feel free to add salt or use a flavored salt like garlic salt.
Parmesan cheese: Feel free to omit the parmesan cheese if you prefer. However, you may find that you need to add a bit of salt to the dish if you omit the parmesan.
