Sheet Pan Sausage with Potatoes & Green Beans
Dinner is served in only 30 minutes with this easy sheet pan meal! Sausage, potatoes, and green beans roast together in this quick meal the whole family will love.
Update: This recipe was originally published in 2020 and has been republished with all new photos.
One of my all time favorite sheet pan meals is my Sheet Pan Sausage & Veggies. I can’t even tell you how often I’ve whipped that one up! A whole heck of a lot! It’s just so fast that it keeps my family fed when we have very little time (or the head chef of this household – that’s me – has very little will to cook). Today’s recipe is a very natural extension of that recipe and you’re going to be pleased as punch to gobble it up.
You’re welcome to use whatever fully cooked sausage you prefer. I typically go with this chicken and apple one from Applegate that I find at Whole Foods. I also recommend their fire roasted red pepper and sweet Italian varieties. Another great brand to check out is Aidells if you’re wanting another solid option with clean ingredients. But really any fully cooked sausage will work so if you have a brand you love go with it!
The prep is minimal. The most time intensive thing you’ll have to do is chop your potatoes and slice the sausage. Talk about simple, right?
For this recipe you’ll need (full list of ingredients and instructions are in the recipe card below):
- Sausage
- Potatoes
- Green beans
- Olive oil
- Seasonings
Spread the sausage, potatoes, and green beans on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
Drizzle with olive oil and all the seasonings. Use a spatula to spread everything around so that it’s evenly coated. Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake until potatoes are perfectly tender and enjoy!
What sausage works best?
Use your favorite fully cooked sausage. Chicken, beef, turkey, or pork would all work. I prefer Applegate chicken sausages because the ingredient list is short but the flavor is always great. I get mine at Whole Foods. (Not an ad. Just sharing my preference if you’re looking for a brand to try.) Two other brands you might enjoy are Bilinski’s and Aidells.
What potatoes are best?
You can use any potato variety you like. I use gold or yellow potatoes because they always taste a little buttery and my family loves that.
Can you use a different veggie?
Green beans can easily be swapped out for another veggie that cooks in the same amount of time. Brussels sprouts, broccoli, and carrot sticks would all work beautifully too!
What size sheet pan should you use?
I use a 12 x 17 baking sheet for all my sheet pan recipes. This accommodates a lot of food without overcrowding. If your baking sheet is smaller, use two instead of one. (Don’t overcrowd.)
Does this sheet pan meal freeze well?
Yes! If making this meal for future enjoyment you can freeze it in an airtight freezer safe container (like freezer bags). Then thaw and reheat in a skillet on the stovetop or in the microwave.

This recipe was so easy and delicious. A hit with the whole family, even the pickiest of eaters loved it!
That’s so nice to hear! Thank you so much for taking the time to tell me!
Thank you. Made this dish last night. I mixed in golden sweet potatoes and used cranberry chicken sausage but followed everything else. My family loved it.
Awesome! The cranberry chicken sausage sounds yummy!
This looks so delicious! I’m such a sheet pan fan, especially for weekdays as I love being able to chuck everything into the oven at once whilst I clean up! Thank you for sharing this delicious recipe x
Thank you!
Quick, simple and tasty! Goes on my rotation!
I’m so glad! 🙂
a great recipe to swap out veggies and seasonings with! Be cautious though because parchment paper will start to burn at 420 degrees (I learned this the hard way lol)
Wonderfully delicious. I am not much of a cook and can do this. Thanks for a recipe to add to my rotation.
Great, easy sheet pan recipe. The combination of spices was perfect. This will definitely be on rotation with ingredients on hand.
Easy prep and everyone loved it. Thank you for the recipe.
One of my favs!
One pan and done-my favorite kind of dish.
A win for even my picky eaters!
Love this quick and easy recipe!! So easy, so quick!!
It was so good!!! Made it 3 times already😁
A quick and easy go to dinner that the whole family loves!! It’s always a battle to see who gets to take the leftovers for lunch the next day–there aren’t usually many. We like it with spicy andouille sausage and love to sub asparagus for the green beans when it’s in season.
Very delicious recipe and definitely worth repeating. I thought the oil was a little too much – next time I think I’ll cut it down to 2 tbsp. But the flavor was excellent and we loved the combination of the potatoes and green beans. Thanks for a great recipe!
love that this can be done on a whim with minimal prep. it was delicious too!
OMG!!! I have made sausage, potatoes and a veggie so many times before BUT as a skillet meal and I always feel like the veggies are soggy. This was the best quick dinner meal!!!!
Perfect healthy meal. Done in 45 minutes from start to sitting down to dinner
This recipe is a big winner! I’m so glad I tried it!
I used ALDI Never Any! Apple Chicken Sausage and The Little Potato Company Dynamic Duo (red and yellow small creamer potatoes-I halved the larger ones). I also substituted 5 diced garlic cloves for garlic powder, and added one half red onion (sliced and quartered) and a few sprigs of fresh rosemary (this added a great pop of flavor!). I followed the instructions except I stirred together all the ingredients in a large bowl, then poured onto a baking sheet and baked for 30 minutes.
One of my go-to recipes when I’m not sure what to make! I recently added chopped carrots to this mix and we loved it. Thank you for adding veggie suggestions that cook in a similar amount of time, it’s always so helpful!
I make this A LOT! Why not? It’s quick, easy, delicious and good for me!
Easy sheet pan meal that takes little effort and tastes great.
fast, easy and delicious. (& this comes from someone who doesn’t love cooking). My family loved it! Will definitely put this in our dinner rotation.
Looks delicious! I’m on WW, the purple plan so I’m wondering, how many points?
I have made a LOT of sheet pan dinners—this is my favorite. We make it all the time.
Love this recipe so much! I’ve made it with regular smoked sausage and with chicken apple smoked sausage, and it’s been delicious both times. Thank you for sharing a great recipe 😊
This was great! I had no green beans OR potatoes, so hacked up 4 beef kielbasas, one yellow bell pepper, a handful of baby carrots, a Vidalia onion, and one medium yellow squash. Used recipe seasonings and directions, except tossed all in one bowl to oil and season up, and then dumped on parchment on baking sheet. Also used convection to get things cooked enough and a bit of crisp on sausage slices. I would think there is no way to mess up a good basic recipe like this, so glad we tried it. 🙂
What an easy, delicious meal! This has to be one of the easiest recipes I’ve come across and yummier than I imagined! My husband kept sneaking bites before dinner time and over and over he said it was a do-again meal. It’s also a cheap meal! Score!
I also made some pasta (white cheddar shells) and had rolls.
Thank you for this recipe!
I made this tonight and I ended up burning my sausage 🙁 if I would have turned them half way through they would have been perfect
I see you have a shrimp recipe but how could you make this recipe by replacing the sausage with shrimp? What would the instructions be for that?
Hi Matthew, shrimp cooks a lot faster than sausage so if you wanted to use sausage here you’d only need it on the sheet pan for the last 5 to 7 minutes of the cook time.
Recipe is on repeat! My kids love it!
One of my favorites too! Thanks, Valarie!
Love the bold, but not spicy, flavor of this easy meal! It’s a staple in our dinner rotation. Thanks, Christina, for another winner!
You know I’m a fan of big flavor! Thank you, Meredith! 🙂
This is a go to for us! We use chicken sausage for us… unless the grandsons are here. They also devour it! Great recipe and it freezes well.
There’s no greater compliment than that’s it kid approved! Thanks, Diane!
Question:
Why can’t one just pour everything into a large bowl and add olive oil and spices , and stir them all around, coatingeverything and then pour everything onto sheet?
It works for me and, and this way if using parchment paper, you won’t rip it……
You absolutely can. I just try to use minimal dishes. 😉
One of our go to favorites. I make this, but put everything into a large ziplock bag to mix and coat it. Then dump onto my baking sheet and sprinkle parmesan cheese or cheddar cheese all over the top of it. Then bake as directed.
Love that! Thank you for sharing!
This was fantastic and so easy! I only used salt and pepper as the seasoning, since I know one of my kids wouldn’t tolerate anything else added. This will definitely be made frequently, thank you!
Thank you for the kind comment, Blair!
So easy and so yummy!
I’ve made this a gazzilion times now, and every time I offer it to others, they also think it’s delicious. I’ve also done it with broccoli instead of green beans, which I personally prefer.
Thank you, Traci! I’m so happy you like the recipe!
I made this a couple of nights ago and was given rave reviews and asked to add it to our menu selections. My guys told me the the green beans absolutely make this dish stellar. Super easy. Thanks for the recipe!!
I love that! Thank you, Michele!
Loved it! Quick, easy & so flavorful! We supplemented not quite having enough green beans from the garden by adding a little zucchini & it turned out perfect!
Happy to hear that, Emily! Thank you!
I’m going to make this, but was wondering if I could use canned Whole New Potatoes instead of fresh?
Hi! I wouldn’t recommend roasting anything that’s been canned because of the amount of liquid that would have been absorbed into the potatoes (or any canned food).
This recipe is our new family favorite and go to meal. Thank you!!
So happy to hear that, Tiffany! Thank you!!
This is my favorite side dishes (personally I could just eat this alone as a one dish meal but my husband prefers a 4 course meal, so this is cooked as a side dish for us). There are several different recipes for this dish using other spices or quantities of ingredients, but this recipe is by far the BEST!! I always double ingredients and cook in a 9″x13″ glass casserole dish sprayed with olive oil for easy clean up!! (*Tip: You can also substitute fresh green beans with can green beans but they won’t turn out crisp of course, the beans will be soft/mushy as if boiled)
I made this for supper tonight! It was fast, easy and delicious!!
That’s wonderful to hear! Thank you, Shelly!
I’ve been wanting to make this recipe for a quite some time and finally decided it was time. Oh My Goodness! It was so easy and tasted amazing. My husband and I both loved it. The recipe will now be on a regular rotation. The only deviation I made from the recipe was I halved the amount of oregano and basil, my palette is a little more sensitive, knowing I could add more next time if I felt like it needed it. Great dinner!!
Love this, Kristi! Thank you!
Made this tonight. First time using fresh green beans. My family loved it! I had one corn on the cob left and threw it on there in thirds. Everything was cooked well at 25 minutes. Thank you for a great week night dinner recipe!
Makes me so happy you enjoyed this meal, Joanne! Thank you for trying it and taking the time to leave such a kind comment!
I made this for the first time last night, and it was delicious! A hit with my husband too! So quick and easy, added a salad and dinner was ready in a jif! Can’t wait to make it again! Thank you!
Perfect! Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know!
I made this with Aidells sausage it was a quick and yummy meal!
Aidells is a great choice! So happy you enjoyed this, Veronica!
Full of flavor and SO easy to make!! My family loves it when I make this!
Thank you, Melanie! Can’t beat an easy sheet pan meal!!
So easy and delicious ⭐️
Made this last night and my husband and I loved it. Such an easy and quick fall dinner. We used Trader Joe’s roasted garlic chicken sausage and it was perfect!
This is our go-to dinner recipe!! It comes together so quickly and easily! And tastes great! Fun fact- I’ve been hooked on this recipe since you included it in your demo at Euna Mae’s in 2020. 🙂
Delicious and so easy!
My husband is picky when it comes to seasonings and this was a hit!! I used baby potatoes, frozen green beans, soaked in water (separate bowls for about 5 minutes) and used canola oil as I didn’t have olive oil. I also tossed the potatoes and green beans with the seasoning before putting on the sheet pain. The taste was phenomenal and this recipe is a keeper!!
My whole family loves this including my dad who detests anything that is green!! This is one of those meals that I make in huge quantities because we can eat it as leftovers for a few days after the initial binge from the first night. I have found that using the garlic paste and Italian herb paste work better as you get a slightly better flavor.
