LEMON BUTTER ROASTED VEGETABLES WITH SAUSAGE (SHEET PAN)

Steps:

• Note: I made this using 6 ounces of sausage, a combination of andouille and chicken with apple and gouda, and roughly half the quantity of vegetables, as I'm cooking just for myself. I had no zucchini or eggplant, but used the others and added a beet. The world of vegetables is available to use in this recipe.
• 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F In a small bowl, stir together the butter, lemon zest, lemon juice and garlic.
• 2. On a large baking sheet, arrange the carrots, radishes, bell pepper, and eggplant in an even layer. Drizzle about half of the lemon garlic butter over the vegetables and toss well to combine. Season with salt and pepper. (I sprayed the pan with a little olive oil).
• 3. Roast until the veggies are just tender, 15 to 17 minutes. Add the tomatoes, asparagus, zucchini and sausage. Drizzle the remaining lemon garlic butter over the mixture, and toss well to combine.
• 4. Roast until all the vegetables are very tender and the sausage has begun to brown, 17 to 20 minutes.
• Note: I got a little distracted and added more veggies to the pan than were called for. Leftovers are delicious, but you may want to gauge your quantities more carefully.
