Ingredients That You’ll Need:
- Sausages: My favorite sausages are either kielbasa or smoked turkey. Both are fine as long as they are precooked. Just pick whatever you like best.
- Veggies: Often I will omit the sweet potatoes and add more peppers and other veggies in place of the sweet potatoes when I make this sausage sheet pan dinner. I like to serve it over rice, so I omit the sweet potatoes and add extra vegetables instead.
- Olive oil: The extra virgin olive oil I prefer is the best. If you prefer another cooking oil, you can use it.
- Garlic: If you don’t have fresh garlic cloves, you can use about 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
- Seasoning: I find that thyme and oregano pair so well together.
What Other Vegetables Can I Use In Pioneer Woman Sausage Sheet Pan Dinner?
Use cauliflower, squash, zucchini, carrots, asparagus, green beans, brussels sprouts, or onions as replacements or additions. Since root vegetables bake longer, cut them a bit smaller than the other vegetables.
How To Make Pioneer Woman Sausage Sheet Pan Dinner?
1. Chop and prepare the vegetables and sausages. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
2. Spread the vegetables and sausages on a large sheet pan. If they don’t all fit on one pan, you can use two. You should now add olive oil, garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss well to evenly coat.
3. Cook for 20 minutes or until the sausages are crisp around the edges and vegetables are tender. To add a bit more crispiness to the veggies and sausages, broil the oven for about 2-3 minutes.

Recipe Tips
- Chopping all of the veggies in advance will save you time. Tossing this sausage sheet pan dinner together just before cooking takes only a few minutes if you chop all the vegetables early.
- Although you could cook these sausages whole, I recommend slicing them. By slicing the sausages, they will become crispier around the edges and cook more evenly.
- The sweet potatoes can be peeled if you wish. Keeping our skins on is our favorite way to eat. We don’t want to spend too much time over dinner.
- If you use sausage with high-fat content, it will produce more oil when it is cooked. For this sausage dinner, I often reduce the olive oil by one tablespoon when I use Kielbasa. I don’t want the vegetables to be too oily or soggy since the sausage will release more oil than others.
FAQ Section
Peel and cut all of the vegetables and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Place the sausages on the sheet pan with the potatoes and other veggies and roast according to recipe instructions.
The peppers and onion become sweet when roasted, which is why we recommend spicy sausage (any variety), but you can use any sausage you like: spinach and feta, chicken parmesan, roasted garlic.
Probably, but you’d have to brown it first before putting it on a sheet pan. I haven’t done this myself, so I can’t say for certain.
Absolutely. After letting your Pioneer Woman Sausage Sheet Pan Dinner cool completely, store it in an airtight, freezer-safe container or Ziploc bag. Slice the cooked sausage into pieces for easier reheating.
