This will become a fast favorite. It’s easy to sneak more vegetables into a meal by roasting them, since they become sweeter with caramelization.
Try adding sliced beets, squash, or carrots to the mix!
Serves 4.
Ingredients:
3 Tbsp olive, avocado, or coconut oil
4 - 5 sausage links: chicken, turkey, or vegan alternative (about .2 lbs each / 90 g)
16 oz. (450 g) green beans (fresh or frozen)
16 oz. (450 g) brussels sprouts (fresh or frozen)
2 large potatoes, washed, peeled and cut into cubes
1 Tbsp dried rosemary
1 Tbsp dried thyme
Salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
Drizzle 2 Tbsp of your oil of choice on a rimmed baking sheet and place in the oven.
Preheat the oven to 425° F (220° C).
Toss the green beans, brussels sprouts, potatoes in a large bowl with remaining 1 Tbsp of oil, plus the herbs. Set aside.
Cut the chicken sausage links into circles. Set aside.
When the oven is heated, carefully remove the baking sheet and place the veggies and sausage links in a single layer on the sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and roast for 30 - 45 minutes, stirring every 10 - 15 minutes so they roast evenly.
It will be done when the potatoes are cooked through and everything is caramelized. Carefully remove from the oven and add more salt and pepper if desired. Enjoy!
