[quote=Anonymous]Something that I've started making that everyone likes is just roasted sausage and vegetables. I cut up a bunch of different vegetables (cut them in pieces roughly the same size), some sausage (we like kielbasa but chicken sausage works too), toss it with olive oil and seasonings (I often use salt and Trader Joe's 21 Seasoning Salute), dump it in a roasting pan, and roast at 425 until the veggies are carmelized--you can judge how well you want them done, but I like ours nice and brown. I think it takes 20-30 minutes to roast? For veggies, I often use sweet potatoes, peppers, and onions, but I'll also throw in regular potatoes, brussels sprouts, carrots, etc--whatever I have in the veg drawer that needs to be used. In terms of how much veg to use, I basically fill a large roasting pan (maybe 6-8 cups of chopped vegetables?). For a family of four with two young kids, we easily eat the whole 12oz package of kielbasa or chicken sausage, so you may want to add a little extra sausage. Since this uses pretty sturdy vegetables, you can chop them in advance so that all you do when you walk in the door is preheat the oven and dump everything in the pan. I even mix everything with the olive oil and seasonings right in the roasting pan. One dish meal! [/quote]
