Oh my goodness, my family loves an easy weeknight sheet pan dinner. And, these Sausage Sheet pan meals never disappoint. My husband never admits it’s one of his favorite meals, but he reminds me to keep it in the mix every time we eat it.

I really love this meal on the grill but it’s still great in winter months or around St. Patty’s day for a little variety and it still includes a few vegetables.

This Weight Watcher friendly sausage sheet pan dinner is a perfect weeknight dinner or St. Patricks Day celebration that brings all the flavor and drops all the calories.

Bigpittstop’s sheet pan meal tips:

Everything cooks together in one pan – meat and vegetables all cook together
Sometimes some items go in and others are added to the same sheet later in the cooking time
Line pan with foil for an easy cleanup
Any sheet pan meal I cook is often a meat, and then veggies all done together at 400 for 15-20 minutes
Frozen vegetables are great to use for sheet pan meals and I usually season them with olive oil and balsamic and cook for 20 min.
Balsamic or italian salad dressings make a great topping for any meat and veggie sheet pan meal – it already has the olive oil, vinegar and seasonings all in one bottle
Sheet pan meals are very forgiving. All another sauce or condiment when they come out of the oven if you need more flavoring

I really love sheet pan meals because they are so easy to clean up – we try them often when we are together as a big family or on vacation. Some of our favorites are this sausage sheet pan dinner, turkey meatloaf scoops, orange dijon rustic citrus chicken, or salmon and summer veggies.

Sausage Sheet Pan Meal

This Weight Watcher friendly sausage sheet pan dinner is a perfect weeknight dinner or St. Patricks Day celebration that brings all the flavor and drops all the calories.

Ingredients

1 pkg Chicken Sausages or Turkey Polish or Turkey Smoked Sausages
1 bag frozen Broccoli fresh broccoli or brussel sprouts works well too
3 Bell pepper – red, yellow, orange (1 each)
1/2 Red onion
Petite carrots optional
Olive oil spray
Balsamic vinegar
Rice minute, boil in a bag, boxed side, or microwave pouches

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400.
Line cookie sheet with foil and spray with olive oil.
Cut Bell Pepper and red onion into chunks.
If using turkey sausages, cut into 3 inch chunks.
Add vegetables and meat to cookie sheet – it can all mix together or separate if you have picky eaters.
Spray with olive oil spray and sprinkle with balsamic.
Add other seasonings if you like – cajun, season all, garlic and onion, steakhouse, or salt and pepper.
Bake at 400 for 20 minutes, look for browning on edge of veggies and meat.
While pan is cooking, prepare rice according to box direction.
Remove pan from oven and serve meat and veggies over prepared rice.

Notes

Note – potatoes or sweet potatoes are a great alternative to rice. Just prepare them and start cooking earlier. Potato quarters take 30-45 minutes when baked at 400. 425 is a better temp for cooking potatoes, so shift the cook time for veggies and meat to 12-15 minutes.
