One Pan Roasted Sausage and Vegetables with Marinara and Goat Cheese is low calorie, gluten free and the answer to your dinner dilemma since it only takes a few minutes to prepare and the frees up time while it bakes in the oven.
One Pan Roasted Sausage and Vegetables with Marinara and Goat Cheese is your answer to those nights where you have no energy to stand in the kitchen cooking. Do you have 10 minutes to prepare dinner? This takes no time to throw together and then the oven does the rest in about 25 minutes. I really can’t get enough of quick fix meals like this and hot marinara and melty goat cheese is the icing on top.
I am struggling with not having enough time in the day as I am sure you all can relate. After our last move 3 months ago, I feel like we have more to do than ever. I keep thinking when the third kiddo starts school next year I might have some extra time.
I did however make my very first recipe video…which is what all the cool food bloggers are doing these days. It is a learning curve, but I am happy with the way it turned out. Go check it out in this Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars post.
But back to this One Pan Roasted Sausage and Vegetables- you can combine any vegetables you like although these are some of my favorites- high fiber cruciferous veggies like broccoli and cauliflower really fill your belly. Use whatever sausage you prefer, but for tips on chose a lower saturated fat one, look for a chicken or venison blend.
A couple tips on getting a nice crust on those roasted vegetables: do not use foil! I know it helps with cleanup, however it doesn’t allow the food to get a nice brown crust, but rather creates more moisture. Also, use high temps- over 400 degrees is best and do not crowd the pan. I use two baking sheets to make sure this doesn’t happen.

Tomato Sauce– if you are not making it from scratch, this Victoria brand Marinara Sauce is the best I’ve tasted. It is perfection and will really make those Italian dishes stand out.
