Nothing beats a 5 ingredient dinner!
This quick and easy dinner is a crowd pleaser.
Gosh, sometimes I just want a simple supper. Like something a third grader could throw together. Something that requires little to no thinking but in return gives you a delicious end result.
This supper also reminds me of the week I've had. Simple. Quiet. No one asking me 48 billion questions.
Mom, why do we brush our teeth twice a day?
Mom, did you wash my favorite shirt?
Mom, I'm hungry, can I have a snack?
So many questions. All the time. I love those little buggers but why am I supposed to teach them about life?
Kidding. They're great, but they are also great when they are visiting their grandparents.
My week has been super quiet sans a few dates with friends {you can see the fun we had over on Instagram here} and it reminds me of this simple, quick summer meal.
I am for the most part a non-dramatic, easy going gal, so when I come across a meal that from start to finish is done in 45 minutes, only requires 5 ingredients, photographs beautifully, feeds a hearty bunch and tastes amazing, I know we were a match made in heaven.
This sheet pan dinner? {They have become a popular 'thing', in case you aren't in the loop}. I just love this meal.
Kielbasa sausage? Loved it since I was a babe.
Roasted crispy potatoes? Not a friend of mine would turn these down.
Fresh green beans? One of the best parts of summer.
Perhaps I also forgot to mention that the sausage, potatoes and green beans are drizzled in garlic butter prior to roasting in the oven.
Yes, I'll say it again. GARLIC BUTTER.
It ranks right up there behind baby wipes {best invention ever}, margaritas on the rocks {duh}, girlfriends that know you better than your own husband {anyone with me?} and pizza {because, well, pizza}.
Please try this sheet pan dinner on your family. Then let me know how you liked it. It really could not be easier. If you can do boxed mac and cheese you can do this.
Sausage and Potato Sheet Pan Dinner
1 kielbasa sausage link, cut into chunks
4 medium sized potatoes, cut into large chunks
1 lb. fresh green beans
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 stick butter, melted
salt
pepper
1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Spray a large rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
2. Place the cut potatoes face down on the baking sheet and bake alone for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn the potatoes over {you should have a brown, crispy side}.
3. Add the kielbasa and green beans to the baking sheet.
4. Melt the butter in a microwave safe dish. Add in the minced garlic and stir. Pour over the sausage, potatoes and green beans. Toss to coat. Sprinkle on salt and pepper.
5. Roast in the oven for another 20 minutes.
6. Serve immediately.
