Simply toss plenty of fresh carrots, broccoli, onions, potatoes, and smoky sausage with olive oil and a flavorful seasoning blend, then roast until everything is perfectly tender and packed with taste. It’s quick to prep, keeps cleanup to a minimum, budget-friendly, and proves that nutritious dinners can be seriously delicious.

Ingredients you’ll need
Ready to make dinner effortless and delicious? Gather these simple ingredients to whip up your sheet pan sausage and veggies in no time!
- Baby potatoes: Tender and creamy, these bite-sized chunks roast up perfectly crispy on the outside and soft inside.
- Baby carrots: Sweet and crunchy, they add color and a natural sweetness to balance the savory sausage.
- Onion: Adds a mild, savory flavor that caramelizes beautifully when roasted.
- Olive oil: Keeps everything moist and helps those seasonings stick for maximum flavor.
- Seasonings: A simple but flavorful blend that includes salt, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika brings out the best in every ingredient with a little smoky, savory kick.
- Broccoli florets: Adds freshness and a slight crunch, roasting just right alongside the other veggies.
- Smoked sausage: The star protein—smoky, juicy, and full of flavor. Chicken or turkey sausage works great, but use your favorite!
Customize this meal
Here are some tasty ways to switch up your one-pan sausage and veggies meal:
- Swap the sausage: Try spicy Italian sausage, chorizo, or even smoked kielbasa for different flavor profiles.
- Change up the veggies: Add bell peppers, zucchini, Brussels sprouts, or sweet potatoes for more variety and color. This meal is easily adaptable, so use what you have and clean out the fridge!
- Add a kick: Toss in red pepper flakes or a splash of hot sauce for some heat.
- Herb infusion: Sprinkle fresh herbs like rosemary, thyme, or oregano before roasting for an aromatic twist.
- Cheesy finish: Once cooked, top with shredded Parmesan cheese or mozzarella and pop under the broiler for a melty finish.
- Make it low-carb: Replace potatoes with cauliflower florets or turnips for a lighter option.

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a very large sheet pan (I use this 15×21-inch sheet pan) or 2 smaller pans with parchment paper and set aside.
- Rinse and chop the unpeeled baby potatoes into small, bite-sized pieces. Chop or slice the onion into small pieces.
- Place potatoes, carrots and onion on the prepared sheet pan. Add 4 tablespoons olive oil and all the seasonings over the top. Use your hands or a spatula to toss and evenly to coat all the veggies with seasonings. Space everything out as best you can and place in the oven for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prep the broccoli by ensuring you have small florets. Pull the potatoes out of the oven, stir with a spatula and scoot the veggies over to one side of the pan, then place the broccoli on the empty side. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil over the broccoli and season with an extra dash of each: salt, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika. Stir broccoli and place back in the oven for 10 minutes.
- While that’s cooking, slice the sausage into bite size pieces. Remove veggies from the oven, stir, place the sliced sausage over the top. Place back into the oven for 10 minutes.
- Remove and enjoy!

How to make this one pan meal
Step 1. Rinse and chop the unpeeled baby potatoes into small, bite-sized pieces. Chop or slice the onion into small pieces.
Step 2. Spread the potatoes, carrots, and onion on the sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and seasonings, then toss to coat evenly. Arrange in a single layer and roast in the oven for 20 minutes.
Step 3. While the potatoes roast, prepare small broccoli florets. After 20 minutes, stir the potatoes and push them to one side of the pan. Add the broccoli to the empty space, drizzle with oil, season lightly, then toss and roast for another 10 minutes.
Step 4. While that’s cooking, slice the sausage into bite size pieces. Remove veggies from the oven, stir, place the sliced sausage over the top. Place back into the oven for 10 minutes. Remove and enjoy! You can garnish with chopped fresh parsley or basil, if you’d like.
Recipe tips
- Sheet pan: Use a large sheet pan so everything has room to roast, not steam. Crowded veggies cook unevenly and take longer. I recommend a 15×21-inch pan or two smaller ones for best results.
- Easy cleanup: For easy cleanup, line your sheet pan with parchment. Just toss it after cooking and give the pan a quick rinse!
Frequently asked questions
Yes! Chop the veggies and slice the sausage up to 24 hours in advance. Store everything in the fridge until you’re ready to toss and roast.
You can, but they may release more moisture and steam instead of roast. For best results, thaw and pat them dry first.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or toss in a skillet to crisp things up again.
Serving suggestions
Here are some tasty serving suggestions for your one pan meal with sausage and veggies:
- Over rice: Spoon everything over a bed of white, brown, or wild rice to soak up all the flavor.
- Mashed potatoes: Serve alongside creamy mashed potatoes for the ultimate comfort food combo.
- With pasta: Toss with cooked pasta and a drizzle of olive oil or a spoonful of pesto for an easy weeknight dinner. This would be great with orzo pasta too!
- With sauces: Add a flavorful twist with a dollop of garlic aioli, ranch dressing, honey mustard, or even a splash of buffalo or BBQ sauce.
- Grain bowls: Build a grain bowl to make a whole dinner. Use quinoa, farro, or couscous as the base, and top with the sausage and veggies and a drizzle of sauce.
