This sausage sheet pan dinner is packed with healthy ingredients, every bite is full of flavor, and it’s a breeze to pull together.

This one-pan meal combines sausage, potatoes, brussels sprouts, apples, and carrots — all roasted to perfection. You only need one pan, you can prep ahead of time, everything cooks simultaneously, and clean-up is easy – the perfect recipe for busy weeknights!

Sausage Sheet Pan Dinner Ingredients

This recipe requires only a handful of basic ingredients and is highly customizable. You can use any vegetables you like, but keep in mind that root veggies take longer to roast so you will need to adjust your cook time.

Sausage: Apple chicken sausage is a delicious sweet option for this dinner, but use your favorite variety of Italian sausage (hot, sweet, or mild), kielbasa, andouille, chorizo, bratwurst or turkey! Don’t add any seasoning to the sausage — it’s already seasoned.
Potatoes: You can use a variety of potatoes — sweet, baby red, colorful medley, fingerlings, etc. I prefer petite, bite-size honey gold potatoes. Just make sure to dice all your potatoes the same size. The smaller the potato, the more likely it will be perfectly crispy and evenly cooked by the time the other ingredients are done. You don’t need to peel the potatoes unless you want to.
Carrots: Any style cut — baby, julienne, stick.
Apples: Red or green. I love the tartness of a Granny Smith apple, especially paired with the other flavors on the pan.
Brussels Sprouts: To save time, you can buy your brussels sprouts already washed and halved. Broccoli or cauliflower are also delicious veggie options.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Use a high-quality olive oil for this recipe. My favorite is Kosterina EVOO.

Why We Love This Sausage Sheet Pan Dinner

Prep Ahead: This sheet pan dinner is perfect for prepping ahead of time. You can chop the ingredients and store them in the fridge until you’re ready to roast later in the day.
Cook Time: Everything cooks at the same time.
Easy Cleanup: Only one pan to clean!
Highly Customizable: This recipe requires only a handful of basic ingredients and is highly customizable. Use your favorite combination of sausage and fresh vegetables.

Sheet Pan Roasting Tips

I recommend using a full size sheet pan so you can evenly space the ingredients apart in a single layer. This will ensure everything roasts evenly at the same time. If needed, use two smaller pans! If the ingredients get crowded they will steam rather than roast. You want roasted, slightly crunchy!

I've never thought to make this meal in "rows" - I just always throw everything together. And the addition of Brussel sprouts is a great idea! We use onions instead of apples - my husband does NOT like fruit with his meat - ha! I have started putting the sausage in 1/2-way through cooking - it was getting burnt and/or dried out when I put it in with the carrots, potatoes, and onions. Thanks for sharing!

The rows make it so much easier if you need to pull something off sooner than the rest (sausage or brussels)!
