Ingredients

  • 1 lb smoked sausage or chicken sausage, sliced
  • 2 sweet potatoes, cubed
  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts, halved
  • 1 red onion, cut in wedges
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp each garlic powder and smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup and 1 tbsp Dijon (optional glaze)

Steps

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Toss the sweet potatoes, sprouts and onion with oil and spices. Spread on a large sheet pan. Roast 15 minutes.

TipUse two pans if they're crowded. Space is what makes things brown.
