Ingredients
SAUSAGE Smoked sausage or sweet sausage work well in this recipe! (If you’d like to use uncooked Italian sausage it will need extra time to cook and can be added to the pan with the potatoes.
POTATOES Skins on or off, any type of potato will work well in this one-pan meal. Even sweet potatoes can be used.
VEGGIES Zucchini, peppers, and onions—always the perfect combination! Add in your favorites from mushrooms to green beans.
FLAVOR The flavor of the veggies and sausage really shine in this recipe. It’s all tossed with a simple homemade Italian style dressing. If you’re in a rush swap it for bottled Italian dressing or even balsamic dressing.
How to Roast Sausage & Potatoes

- Add the remaining ingredients, turn the oven up and roast an additional 15 minutes.

Tips for Perfect Sausage & Potatoes
- For best results with sausage and various vegetables, make sure all the pieces are cut uniformly so they roast at the same rate.
- Save time by using a thin-skinned potato (red or white); they don’t need to be peeled first.
- Give the potatoes a jumpstart in cooking (as they take a bit longer than the rest of the ingredients). While they’re cooking, chop the rest of the ingredients to make the prep quick.
- Broil for a few minutes if desired!
Leftovers
- Roasted sausage and potatoes make perfect leftovers! They get better the day after as the flavors blend! Keep leftovers in an airtight container for about 3 days in the refrigerator.
- Tuck leftovers into a wrap for a grab-and-go breakfast or a lunchtime pick-me-up!

This is our family’s current favorite go to recipe!
I was not expecting this soooo delicious!
We make this dinner at least once a week. SUCH a staple. Easy and absolutely delicious. Thank you!!
So easy and instructions were perfect. I usually get a little bothered with people who change a bunch of things in the recipe and then comment on it, but I did not have red pepper flakes, so I added a dash a cayenne pepper for a little heat, and it still worked–everyone loved it. Did an entire baking sheet of diced potatoes, and then a separate sheet of onions, red peppers, and 1 lb of sausage, so I doubled the dressing. Thanks again, Holly!
This was a big hit with my family!
Great easy dinner! Flavors are wonderful! I will be adding this to our meal rotation!
Easy recipe for a quick meal. Great flavor! I will be making this one again.
