Sausage Bake
This meal is an absolute staple in my house. We love it because Austin can take it to work for an easy dinner, eat it as a fast post workout meal, and it gives us some veggies without tasting boring and plain!
This recipe is so simple to throw together and would be perfect for any family dinner or meal prep option.
You can basically use any veggies that you have on hand, but I have been using the same vegetables every time because I love the variety and the colors!
This recipe is so awesome to get a few servings of vegetables, nice carbohydrate source, and protein with a bunch of flavor! Typically, I use fresh green beans, asparagus, bell pepper (I prefer red, orange, or yellow to give it a pop of color and different vitamins/minerals than an all green dish), red potatoes, and sausage. Again, you can use whatever vegetables you have on hand or love; broccoli, cauliflower, squash, etc. I have attempted other meats like chicken and chicken sausage but the result wasn't as good because the flavors from the sausage fat help coat the vegetables to taste amazing!
