Instructions
- preheat oven to 425 degrees and line Sheetpan with parchment paper, foil, or silicone baking mat (my personal preference)
- Add sausage, onion, bell pepper, broccoli, squash, and garlic to sheetpan. In a separate bowl, combine olive oil, mustard, paprika, salt and pepper and stir to combine. Pour over chicken sausage and veggies and toss to evenly coat everything. I use my hands for this 🙂
