My husband walked in, sniffed the air, and gave a satisfied sigh. “Now that smells amazing,” he said, before even seeing it.
The kids, usually wary of “mixed things,” were surprisingly eager. The vibrant colors and the simple presentation seemed to entice them. They dug in, picking their favorite bits of sausage and potato.
It was exactly what we needed: a hearty, flavorful meal that felt homemade and comforting. The sweetness of the peppers, the savory kick of the sausage, and the tender potatoes all came together in perfect harmony. And the best part? Only one pan to wash!
As I scraped the last bits from the pan (because not a single morsel went to waste), I felt a quiet sense of triumph. Some nights, the smartest thing you can do is just let the oven do all the work. It’s a little secret, just between me and my trusty sheet pan.
I have a feeling this accidental winner will be making many more appearances on our weeknight menu. It’s just too easy and too delicious not to.
