In today’s fast-paced world, nothing beats a hearty, budget-friendly, and easy dinner that comes together quickly.

If you’re on the hunt for a satisfying meal that’s easy on the wallet, look no further than a Chicken Sausage Sheet Pan Dinner.

Besides being budget-friendly, sheet pan dinners are great because they’re easy to make and cleanup. Everything cooks on the sheet pan, so there are few dishes to wash.

The Ingredients

Today, I did my shopping at Target. I feel like most people have a Target that’s close by.

Here’s what I bought:

Chicken sausage – $3.99 (I bought Good & Gather Italian-style sausage)
Potato – $.99
Onion – $1.29
Baby carrots – $1.39
Broccoli – $1.29 (they didn’t have fresh so I bought frozen)

I only spent $8.95 on a dinner for 4 people that’s also Weight Watchers friendly!

How to Make This Chicken Sausage Sheet Pan Dinner

Cut the potatoes, carrots, and onion into bite-size pieces – no larger than 1 inch. If the veggies are too big they won’t cook all the way through.

Add the potatoes, carrots, onion, and broccoli to a large mixing bowl.

In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.

Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the vegetables, then add the seasonings. Mix everything together really well.

Add the veggie mixture to a sheet pan in an even layer. Roast in the oven for 25 minutes, mixing halfway through.

Cut each sausage link into 5 pieces. The chicken sausage I bought is already fully cooked, so I just needed to heat it through.

Place the sausage pieces on the sheet pan and put it back in the oven for 7 minutes.

Make It Your Own

The charm of a sheet pan dinner lies in its adaptability. The traditional mixture of chicken sausage and vegetables is merely a starting point, and you have the freedom to tailor your meal to your own personal preferences.

Alternatives to chicken sausage could include proteins like tofu or shrimp.

In terms of vegetables, feel free to mix and match based on what’s in season or what’s available in your pantry.

If you’re a fan of heat, sprinkle some chili flakes into the mix.

The aim is to keep your sheet pan dinner exciting, varied, and catered to your individual taste, all while maintaining its essence of being budget-friendly and easy to prepare.
