Ingredients

Instructions

Instructions for Baking in the Oven

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Cover a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Wash and dry veggies, then cut them all the same size into approx one-inch chunks. It’s important to cut them the same size, so they cook evenly.
  • Combine all the veggies in a bowl.
  • Slice the sausage into one-inch circles.
  • Add the sausage to the veggies, then add olive oil and seasoning.
  • Stir until the sausage and veggies are evenly coated.
  • Pour onto the cookie sheet in a single layer.
  • Bake for 8 minutes, then turn everything over and bake for another 8 minutes or until veggies reach the desired doneness.
  • Enjoy.

Instructions for Air Fryer

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees. Follow the steps above to prepare the veggies. After the sausage and veggies are coated with olive oil, pour them into your air fryer basket. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to divide the recipe into two batches to ensure that it air fries evenly. 
  • Air fry the sausage and veggies for approx 8 min at 400 degrees. Remove the basket and toss, then air fry for another 8 min or until the veggies reach desired tenderness. If you are air-frying the sausage and veggies in two batches, repeat the instructions for the second batch. 

Notes

Tips for keto-friendly sheet pan meals
  1. Chopping your veggies: Sheet pan meals are great because you can easily chop everything up in small chunks. With that said, you have to think about the cooking time of each ingredient on your sheet pan. Some vegetables can take longer to cook than others, so keep that in mind. If a certain vegetable requires a longer cook time, you may need to chop that veggie up smaller in size.
  2. Use parchment paper: Parchment paper is great for baking, especially if you want to crisp up your veggies nicely without sticking them! The bonus is that all the mess will be left on the paper, so cleanup is super easy!
  3. High temperature! I roasted my veggies at 400 degrees F because I knew the veggies wouldn't take long to cook. I also know that kielbasa is already pre-cooked, so I am looking for a nice char and color on my veggies, and a high temp will do this!
  4. Don't overcrowd your pan! Try not to over-crowd your sheet pan. Doing this will prevent your veggies from browning and crisping up. They will end up steaming instead of roasting. If you need to make a double batch, use two separate sheet pans!
  5. Cleaning and drying your vegetables. To wash veggies, I prefer to soak them in the sink in water with about 1/4 cup vinegar. Then, rinse well and lay them on a towel to dry. If you are in a hurry, you can pat them dry. It is important that they are dry so that the oil can coat them for the spices to stick.
  6. Meal prepping: A simple way to meal prep this recipe is to cut everything on your meal prep day and then store it in an airtight container or freezer bag in the fridge until it's time to cook everything.
