  4. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste, and spread the mixture into an even layer on the pan.
Cooking

Notes

Feel free to mix and match veggies according to what you have on hand! Vegetable variations like carrots, zucchini, or broccoli work beautifully. Chicken or turkey sausage are lighter alternatives that maintain excellent flavor. Store in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days; can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
