Oven Roasted Sausage and Potatoes

I have a tendency of looking for easy dishes to make when I have had a long day. On those days that I do not feel like cooking, however, this Oven Roasted Sausage and Potatoes are one of the easiest recipes I have had in such a long time.

This one was passed down in our family from my Grandmother. I cherish all the recipes in her collection.

The dish is roasted in a single pan. The potatoes come out crispy on the outside and super tender and fluffy on the inside. The Sausage bites are crispy on the edges and the meat is tender and savory.

Roasting the potatoes and meat together not only makes life easier, but the flavors also tend to meld together and make for an even better flavor.

And the best part? It’s perfect for any time of year.
