Keto 20-Minute Sheet Pan Sausage and Veggies

If you're seeking a quick and delicious Keto protein-packed dinner, look no further than our Keto 20-minute Sheet Pan Sausage and Veggies. This recipe combines the savory goodness of smoked sausage with a medley of colorful vegetables, all roasted to perfection on a sheet pan. With a zesty mayo-based dressing, this dish is not only bursting with flavor but also low in carbs. Let's uncover the secrets to crafting this scrumptious and hassle-free Keto meal.

What type of sausage can you use?

The key to the success of this dish begins with selecting the right sausage. For the ultimate flavor, we recommend using 400g of smoked sausage. Smoked sausage imparts a rich, smoky aroma that pairs perfectly with the roasted vegetables. However, don't hesitate to get creative with your choice of sausage. Whether you prefer spicy, mild, or even a plant-based sausage, this recipe welcomes customization to suit your taste.

How to customize this recipe?

Customization is where you can truly make this Keto protein-packed dinner your own. Experiment with the veggies by incorporating your favorites or whatever is in season. Broccoli, cauliflower, or cherry tomatoes can be delightful additions. Spice up the dish by adjusting the amount of crushed red chili to meet your heat preference. The dressing can also be customized to your taste; consider adding a dash of lemon juice for a citrusy twist or extra herbs for freshness. Tailor the recipe to create a meal that tantalizes your taste buds while keeping it Keto-friendly.

How to store this recipe for meal prep?

Meal prep is a game-changer for busy lifestyles. To store this Keto protein-packed dinner for meal prep, Allow the sheet pan creation to cool to room temperature. Then, transfer the sausages and veggies to an airtight container, keeping them separate from the dressing. Refrigerate these components for up to three days. When ready to enjoy your meal, reheat the sausages and veggies and drizzle the dressing over them. This approach allows you to savor the flavors of this delectable dish throughout the week, making meal prep a breeze.

    Great idea for a simple but tasty meal. The sauce was quite yummy and I made it exactly as the recipe reads. As for what you put on your sheet pan there's endless options with this versatile recipe. I used andouille sausage, mushrooms, red bell pepper, onion, yellow zucchini, fresh jalapeno and radishes (boiled first so they roasted like potatoes). Dumped all the veggies in a bowl with the oil and the spices and stirred it around before throwing on to the sheet pan and then the sausage. This is a much easier method than the one suggested in the recipe where you try to drizzle things onto the veggies while avoiding the sausages. That just seems silly. Finally, I cooked at least twice as long as suggested so there was time to draw all of the juice out of the veggies and get a real roasted feel to it.
