Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 pound sausage (your choice: pork, chicken, or plant-based)
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (e.g., parsley or thyme) (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare Ingredients: Peel and cube the sweet potatoes. Cut the sausage into bite-sized pieces. Rinse and chop the broccoli into florets.
  3. Mix Seasonings: In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
  4. Toss Vegetables and Sausage: Add the sweet potatoes, sausage, and broccoli to the bowl. Toss everything together until the ingredients are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
  5. Spread on Sheet Pan: Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Evenly spread the mixture of sweet potatoes, sausage, and broccoli onto the pan in a single layer.
  6. Bake: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  7. Check for Doneness: The sweet potatoes should be tender and slightly caramelized, while the sausage should be browned and cooked through. A meat thermometer should read 160°F (70°C) for the sausage.
  8. Remove and Garnish: Once cooked, remove the pan from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. You can garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Opt for fresh vegetables and high-quality sausage to enhance flavors.
  • Experiment with Seasonings: Feel free to add your favorite spices like cumin or chili powder.
  • Cut Veggies Uniformly: Ensure sweet potatoes and broccoli are cut into similar sizes for even cooking.
  • Try Different Oils: Avocado or coconut oil can offer a different flavor profile.
  • Add More Veggies: Include carrots, bell peppers, or Brussels sprouts for extra bulk.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
  • Freezing: Freeze portions in freezer-safe containers for up to three months.
