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.

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! 🙂
