Easy Ingredients for this Sheet Pan Dinner

• Yukon Gold Potatoes – Waxy potatoes with thin skins that can be eaten are best for this recipe. Yukon Gold, or baby yukon golds, baby gold potatoes, baby red potatoes, fingerling, or creamer potatoes are best. Sweet potatoes would also be delicious in this recipe! If you only have russet potatoes, you can peel them first and then cut. Make sure to place then prepped potatoes in cold water to prevent oxidation prior to cooking.
• Brussel Sprouts – You can substitute broccoli florets, cauliflower florets, or even carrot slices.
• Yellow Bell Pepper – Any color sweet pepper will work, so green bell peppers, orange bell pepper, or red bell pepper.
• Cloves Garlic – Fresh Garlic cloves, minced – Fresh is best when it comes to garlic, but you can buy pre-minced garlic to save time or mince it in bulk andfreeze itfor use when you need it! In a pinch, you can use garlic flakes or garlic powder.
• Raw Sweet Italian Sausage (removed from sausage casings) – You can also use hot Italian sausage, ground pork sausage, ground beef sausage, chicken sausage, or turkey sausage. Pick the kind of sausage you like best. You can even make your own Ground Italian Chicken Sausage Recipe.
• Small Tomatoes – Small tomatoes are great because you just need to cut them in half or quarters. Campari, Plum or on the vine tomatoes are all great. You can use other larger tomatoes, just cut them into quarters or eighths to portion out better.
• Eggs – Large or Extra Large eggs are fine. If you want to skip the eggs, there is plenty of protein with the sausage.
• Cheddar Cheese, aged white – Any shredded cheese you love will work here. Manchego, Jack cheese, cheddar cheese, mozzarella, or parmesan are all great options.
• Seasoning: Italian Seasoning, Salt, Ground Black Pepper. You can also use cajun seasoning, creole seasoning, taco seasoning, or your favorite blend!
• Fresh Italian Parsley – Fresh herbs at the very end really brighten up this dish. You can also use fresh basil or cilantro leaves.
• Optional: If you want a bit of heat, you can add red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper.

Time Saving Prep for Egg, Potato, Sausage Recipe

We are all extremely busy and making dinner during the week can be overwhelming. Prepping meals ahead can make ALL the difference! (See the recipe below for more details)

Since this recipe is all about simplicity, it calls for store-bought Italian Sausage. However, you can very easily make your own homemade Ground Italian Chicken Sausage ahead of time and even make a few batches and freeze! If you do make the Italian Sausage, it can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container or bag.

Trim bottom of Brussel sprouts and cut them in half. Put in large storage bag.

Cut 1 sweet bell pepper into bite size pieces (red, yellow, or orange will all be great). Add to same bag as Brussel sprouts.

Mince the garlic and add half to bag of Brussel sprouts/peppers. Save half for the potatoes. (you will wait to cut and season potatoes the night you cook).

Tip! To make mincing garlic SUPER EASY, I use a Garlic Press. I crush the garlic with the back of a knife and remove the skin. Then I place it in the press and scrape the minced garlic off with a knife. So simple and my hands don’t smell like garlic for the rest of the day!

Chop the parsley, adding 1 tablespoon to veggie bag and saving rest in storage bag.

Grate cheese (if needed) and put in storage bag.

Place the bag of brussel sprouts and peppers, the extra garlic, the parsley, the Italian Sausage and the cheese on a sheet pan or in a large bowl to keep together as your Meal KIT! The potatoes and tomatoes can stay out of the fridge.

Cooking Process for your Sheet Pan Dinner

On the night you’re ready to cook, pull your KIT out from the fridge!

Preheat oven to 400, then spray the bottom of a large sheet pan with extra virgin olive oil. TIP: Line the sheet pan with aluminum foil before adding oil or any of the ingredients for super easy clean-up!

Cut the potatoes into quarters, season with extra virgin olive oil, minced garlic, Italian Seasoning, salt, and pepper. Roast in oven for 25 minutes.

To the bag with Brussel Sprouts & peppers, add the salt, pepper, and Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Gently rub around to completely coat the veggies.

Quarter the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper.

After 20 minutes in the oven, remove the pan with the potatoes and add the seasoned veggies from the bag plus the tomatoes. Also add pieces of the sausage around the pan. If the sausage came in links, then squeeze it out of the casings. Place back in the oven for another 15 minutes.

After 15 minutes, remove the pan and create 6 holes in the veggies for the eggs.

Crack 1 egg into each of the 6 holes.

Then, add the shredded cheese all over the top of the veggies, sausage, and eggs. Last, sprinkle parsley over top. Place back in the oven for a final 10 minutes to cook the eggs and melt the cheese, slightly browning it on top.

Serve this complete one pan meal on a plate, garnish with a bit more fresh parsley and Enjoy! 😍Carrie

FAQs for Sheet Pan Potatoes and Eggs, Italian Sausage and Veggies

Can I make this Italian Potato and Eggs recipe in a frying pan?

You could make elements of this Sheet Pan Italian Sausage, Potatoes, and Eggs in a frying pan; however, you will not be able to fit all ingredients as you would on the sheet pan. If you want to make some of this in a frying pan, I suggest cooking the eggs there. To do so, preheat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add a touch of extra virgin olive oil, then add 4 eggs and sprinkle the top with salt and pepper. Cook just until the bottom sets, about 1-2 minutes, then flip over gentle and remove the skillet from the heat. You want the bottom to set, but not the yoke, as you want that runny. The heat from the skillet will continue to cook the bottom the perfect amount. (Note: for a firmer yoke, keep the skillet over the heat for another 1-2 minutes)

Can I add an Italian Bread to this Sheet Pan Italian Sausage, Potatoes, and Eggs dish?

You can add a crusty French or Italian bread to this recipe either in addition to the potatoes or to substitute for the potatoes. Option 1 is to cut it up into 1-2 inch cubes and add it to the pan right before adding the eggs. Then cook with the eggs. You can leave the potatoes out of the recipe if you want for this option. Option 2 is to just serve the bread along side of the dish.

What are the substitutes for the Brussels Sprouts and Peppers in this Sheet Pan Dinner?

For this Sheet Pan Potatoes and Eggs recipe, you can use a variety of vegetables that you have on hand or prefer. If you want to substitute another veggie in place of the Brussels Sprouts, you could use carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, or green beans. For the peppers, you can substitute in another peppery or onion-y veggie, such as red onion, shallots, or green onions, scallions.
