Hello, Sheet Pan Chicken Sausage and Fall Veggies

These 3 ingredients require zero effort and make the easiest and yummiest sheet pan recipe that screams “fall flavors!” Oh, and it’s a super affordable meal clocking in around $4 per serving.

Between the shaved Brussels sprouts, tender squash and sweet apple sausage, this meal is a flavor and texture explosion.

The Brussels kit is a staple in our house this time of year (yes, like many TJ items, it’s seasonal) and contains shredded Brussels, a dressing, shaved parmesan and toasted chopped hazelnuts. It’s meant to be sautéed, but I chose to separate the components and roast the Brussels, use the dressing to coat the veggies, and finish it with a broil to use the included hazelnuts and shaved parmesan.

The result is a veggie-forward super healthy meal with a nice balance of protein, fat and carbs (AKA-your macros). It’s full of fiber and with a nice dose of protein from the chicken sausage.

The flavors are sweet and savory with a hit of salt from the parmesan, and rich toasted hazelnut goodness. It’s amazing how well all of the flavors come together!

Don’t worry if you don’t live near TJ’s!

You can find similar ingredients at basically any grocery store. If you can’t find the Brussels sprouts kit, just use plain Brussels, parmesan cheese and hazelnuts, and whip up a simple lemon garlic vinaigrette (promise it’s easy!) Any shape of butternut squash will work too, just be aware that the roasting time may vary slightly.

Ingredients

  • 1 Bag Trader Joe's Brussels Sauté Kit
  • 1 Bag Trader Joe's Butternut Squash Zig Zags (or any small-cut butternut squash)
  • 1 Pkg Sweet Apple Chicken Sausage cut into 1/4" slices

Instructions

  • Heat your oven to 400°F
  • Add the Brussels to a large bowl. Remove any hard stems.
  • Add the butternut squash and sliced sausage and toss with the kit's dressing.
  • Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray and spread the mixture in one layer across the pan.
  • Bake for 18 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with the parmesan and hazelnuts. Set the oven to low broil and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the sausage and pieces of Brussels get crispy and browned.

Notes

If you can't find the Brussels Sauté kit, it's okay to use regular Brussels sprouts! You can whip up your own lemon-garlic vinaigrette and still top with Parmesan and hazelnuts to achieve the same flavor. 
Apple sausage is my favorite flavor for this sheet pan meal, but other flavors could work too!

    I really want to make this tonight but TJs didn’t have the brussels kit – do you know roughly how much dressing comes in the kit?

    1. Breanna Woods MS, RD says:

      I’d say around 1/4 cup!

  2. Tereza says:

    Looks great! Would it be ok to replace Brussels sprouts with broccoli?

      I think so! You may just need to adjust the cooking time a little.
