Sheet Pan Dinners Easy Sausage & Veggie Recipe!

Have you heard of sheet pan dinners? They are essentially a one pan meal that is made on a single sheet pan, which is lined with foil, meaning easy clean up and a tasty dish! Sheet pan dinners are one of my favorite quick and easy dinner ideas. This easy sausage and vegetable recipe is sure to please your entire family!

What Are Sheet Pan Dinners?

A sheet pan dinner is made on a sheet pan as the name implies and generally, the sheet pan is covered in foil to make clean up easy. That means you have only one dish to wash (rinse and dry) and toss the foil in the trash. It couldn’t be easier! One pan and minimal clean up makes for a perfect easy dinner recipe for a family. You can make the meal as big or small as you want which means this recipe is great for two people or a whole family.

You can also use sheet pan dinners as a great way to meal prep for the week. Make a sheet pan supper on Sunday night and then package it up in individual servings for the week. Serve it over rice, quinoa or zucchini noodles for a healthy lunch idea at work!

Weeknights get SO busy. By the time homework is completed, chores are done and bath time accomplished, that leaves little time for dinner. I want to make sure my family always has a healthy, tasty meal on the table by dinnertime and sheet pan dinners mean minimal prep and virtually no cleanup which makes them my go-to on busy nights.

Sheet Pan Dinners With Sausage

You’ll need a quality artisan sausage for your easy sheet pan dinners. We used Klement’s Polish sausage which is a blend of pork and beef, mixed with a blend of spices and it is fully cooked. The authentic taste comes from a recipe from the Old World that Klement’s has been using for over 60 years. Choose any type of sausage for your sheet pan dinner and mix it up!
