by This 30-minute Healthy Vegan Sausage & Sweet Potato Sheet Pan Meal with Brussle Sprouts may sound fancy, but it comes together quickly roasted on one pan and is the perfect balance meal! While the sheet pan is roasting, we whip up the Creamy Maple Dijon Dressing to drizzle on top of your vegan sausage and roasted veggies for the easiest one-pan weeknight dinner ever!
Friends, if you’ve never tried a vegan sheet pan dinner, you’re seriously missing out.
Sheet pan meals are some of my favorite easy main dishes because they’re sooo low effort, are super easy to add a source of protein, carbs, and veggies to, which you know I love as a Registered Dietitian, and can be absolutely DELICIOUS.
And this sweet potato and brussel sprout sheet pan meal is no exception!
We use spicy Italian (vegan!) sausage, cubed sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts as the base and roast them all together until they’re fragrant, golden brown and delicious. We drizzle over my delicious Creamy Maple Dijon Salad Dressing for even more flavor and are left with the absolutely perfect easy plant-based meal!
And if you’re looking for more sheet pan magic, you have to try my Sheet Pan Sesame Tofu with Veggies! It’s packed with crispy, flavorful tofu and perfectly roasted veggies, all coated in a simple sesame glaze you’ll want to drizzle on everything.
Have some leftover Creamy Maple Dijon Dressing? Why not try it drizzled on my Actually Tasty Chickpea Kale Salad?! It takes almost no time to whip up and makes the perfect easy lunch recipe!
A Couple Of Notes For the Crispiest Results!
Now, I’ve tested this recipe both by slicing the sausage into rounds ahead of time and leaving the sausages whole, and I can confirm that slicing the sausage into rounds makes them a little crispier, but you can totally leave them whole if you’re short on time!
Speaking of crispy, make sure you leave space between the ingredients on the pan to roast! If you overcrowd them, they’ll steam instead of roast, and you won’t get that deliciously golden brown crisp!
Lastly, I’m no stranger to delicious roasted brussel sprout recipes, like my super popular Maple Glazed Carrots and Roasted Brussel Sprouts Recipe, so I tested the brussel sprouts a few ways to get the MAX crispy level, and the best way to do this is to roast them cut side down, since more surface area means more room for browning!
Don’t have any vegan sausage on hand? Not to worry, because my Crispy Rosemary Thyme Baked Tofu also works perfectly in this recipe! Simply follow the recipe to season the Rosemary Thyme Tofu, and add it to the pan at the beginning of baking rather than half way through!
