Step-by-step
- Cut each potato in four pieces.
- Peel one large or two smaller onions and cut them in wedges.
- Remove the base and stalks of the fennel, and turn that one into wedges as well
- slice 1/2 to 1 bell pepper in strips and put everything in a big roasting tray, including the carrots.
- Use a big bowl to combine the oil with the Italian herbs, grated or chopped garlic, and chicken broth and pour it over the vegetables. Toss them around to make sure the broth gets everywhere.
- Season with a generous amount of salt and black pepper.
- Cover the tray with aluminum foil and pop it in a preheated oven. Bake at 450F for 45 minutes.
- Lightly brown the sausages and slice each sausage in half.
- After 45 minutes the potatoes and vegetables should be fork tender. If they're not, cover the tray with the foil and pop them back in the oven for a few more minutes.
- If they are fork tender, place the sausages in there and pour the balsamic vinegar all over. Place the tray back in the oven, uncovered, for 25 to 30 minutes.
- Take it out after 15 minutes, flip over those sausages and ladle some of the juices lurking at the bottom all over the vegetables and sausages. Put it back in the oven for the remaining time, until everything is nice and brown.
I'm a busy mom of three, and I'm always looking for quick and easy meals that my family will love. This turkey sausage casserole is one of my favorites because it's so flavorful and satisfying, yet it only takes about an hour to make. Plus, it's a great way to use up leftover vegetables.
The first time I made this casserole, I used ground turkey sausage. However, I've since found that I prefer using sliced turkey sausage because it gives the casserole a more robust flavor. You can use whatever type of sausage you like, though. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly.
This casserole is also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the sweet potatoes and carrots, and they don't even realize they're eating fennel and bell pepper.
If you're looking for a delicious and easy meal that your whole family will enjoy, I highly recommend trying this turkey sausage casserole. It's sure to become a staple in your weeknight dinner rotation.
