How to Make This Sheet Pan Sausage, Potatoes & Peppers Breakfast

To make this easy Whole30 breakfast recipe, you’ll first want to preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. and prep your vegetables. Do this by dicing the potatoes fairly small and in about the same size. It’s important to make them roughly equal in size so they roast evenly. You’ll want to remove the stems and seeds of the mini peppers and slice those as well, along with chopping the parsley. Then place the chopped vegetables on a large sheet pan.

Then, add the oil, and all of the spices, onto the sheet pan over the vegetables. Toss everything together really well to coat the potatoes and peppers in the oil and seasonings. Make sure the vegetables are spread out on the sheet pan in one even layer.

Next, you’ll take your ground sausage and pinch off little pieces that are about 1 tablespoon in size. Place each piece onto the sheet pan nestled between the vegetables. Continue doing this until all of the dollops of sausage are on the sheet pan. Then, put the sheet pan into the oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the potatoes are roasted and the sausage is cooked through.

The baking time may vary by a few minutes, depending on how large or small you diced your potatoes. A larger dice may need more time. Once done, serve this Whole30 breakfast with eggs, or avocado/guacamole.

Where to Find Sugar-Free Sausage

Sugar-free sausage is becoming easier and easier to find in local stores. This guide to Whole30 Compliant Sausage Options will help you locate different types of sausages and different stores. If that is not an option for you, my favorite Whole30 Approved ground breakfast sausage is from Pederson’s, which can be ordered on The Simple Grocer to be delivered.

Substitutions and Storing

Some substitutions you can make with this sausage sheet pan recipe are using different potatoes instead of baby blondes. I prefer those in this because of their buttery texture and how they roast, but red potatoes would work well, too. You can also swap out the herbs for your preferences. For example, if you were making it for dinner instead, you may want to use thyme and rosemary instead of chives and parsley.

You can also use a different form of sausage here if you’d like as well, such as kielbasa. Depending on which type you use, most kielbasas are already precooked, and in that case, I would add the sliced kielbasa halfway through the baking time. You could also use ground italian sausage, or chorizo.

This recipe will be good in the refrigerator for up to 5 days when stored in an air-tight container.
