How to make sausage and veggie sheet pan
Arrange the chopped broccoli, bell peppers, potatoes, red onion, and sliced sausage on a large baking sheet in a single layer so pieces aren’t overlapping.
Sprinkle the vegetables and sausage with minced garlic, chopped rosemary, Cajun seasoning, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Toss well to coat everything evenly.
Bake in a preheated 400°F (200°C) oven for 20 minutes. Remove the pan, stir the vegetables, and flip the sausage so it browns on all sides. Return to the oven and roast for another 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the veggies are caramelized. Serve hot, topping with grated Parmesan if you like.
