This Fall Harvest Sheet Pan Dinner is a healthy, one-pan meal, filled with warming herbs and loaded with seasonal produce. This is a quick and easy sheet pan dinner perfect for busy weeknights! It's a sweet and savory combo made with chicken sausage, butternut squash, apples and brussels spouts then roasted to perfection. Paleo, gluten-free & dairy-free.
Fall Harvest Sheet Pan Dinner (Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free)
Meal planning(and clean up!) doesn't get any easier than with sheet pan dinners! Everything gets cooked at the same time, on one pan, and in no time you have a healthy and delicious meal on the table.
When I make a sheet pan recipe, I always like to make extra! Divide leftovers into containers for lunches. No thinking needed for the next couple days!
What Ingredients Do I Need to Make this Fall Harvest Sheet Pan Recipe?
- Chicken Sausage. I use 4 links of Aidell's Chicken Apple Sausage in this recipe, but any type of flavored chicken sausage links will work here as well since apples are already in the recipe.
- Butternut Squash. I usually peel and dice a fresh squash because they are in season and inexpensive, but you can also grab some frozen, pre-cut butternut squash if you want to save on time.
- Brussels Sprouts. Cut off the bottoms then slice in half. If you're not a brussels spout fan, go ahead and sub another long cooking veggie such as broccoli.
- Apples. I love baking with Honey Crisp or Grannysmith apples during the Fall. They retain their shape-some apples get mushy during baking such as McIntosh.
For the sauce you'll need:
- Avocado Oil. You can also use olive oil, but I prefer the neutral taste from avocado oil so it's always my first choice!
- Herbs & Spices: Thyme, Rosemary, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Salt.
Optional Sauces for drizzing over your roasted meal:
Balsamic glaze-I love this one from Nonna Pia's
Or you can find our favorite homemade garlic aioli recipe here!
Any other type of vinaigrette you like would be tasty!
This meal is all about the flavor from the warming spices and harvest veggies!
