ONE-PAN DINNER! I love easy sheet pan dinners. This meal is high in protein and veggies.

Ingredients

• 1 pound Smoked Sausage Links (cut into 1‑inch pieces; any flavor you prefer (e.g., kielbasa, chicken sausage))
• 2 pieces Bell Peppers (any colors, sliced into 1‑inch strips)
• 2 pieces Zucchini (halved lengthwise then sliced into half‑moons)
• 1 medium Red Onion (peeled and cut into wedges)
• 2 tablespoons Olive Oil (extra‑virgin, for garlic oil)
• 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon Paprika (smoked preferred)
• 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
• ½ teaspoon Salt
• ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper (freshly ground)

7. Roast

   Place the pan in the preheated oven and roast for 25‑30 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the sausage is browned and the vegetables are tender‑crisp.

8. Rest and Serve

   Remove the pan from the oven, let it sit for 2 minutes, then serve hot straight from the sheet pan or transfer to a serving dish.
