Ok, so I NEVER cook without a recipe, like EVER but I guess I was feeling daring because today I whipped this tasty little number up and it was a hit with the whole family. I got the inspiration from this recipe which I made a few nights ago for company and served with a crusty sourdough loaf. I wanted something sweet and savory and Fallish so this was the end product. You could definitely add whatever veggies you like best besides sweet potatoes like parsnips or carrots. I thought next time I might try adding some brussels sprouts to add a little green to the mix. You can also use whatever types of sausages you like best. Trader Joe's has like 10 different types so I went with their Roasted Apple Chicken Sausages. I thought it would pair well with the sweet potato. If you want to experiment with the flavor at all you could also add a tablespoon of mustard to the sauce. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
2 packages of Chicken Sausages with Roasted Apples, cut into 1" pieces (I use Trader Joe's brand)
2-3 large sweet potatoes, cut into large chunks
2 red onions, cut into large chunks
2 Tablespoons of olive oil
1/4 cup maple syrup
salt & pepper
Directions:
Cut up Chicken Sausages, sweet potatoes and red onion and toss in a large bowl. In a separate small bowl whisk together olive oil and maple syrup and then pour it over the chicken and veggies. Stir to coat. Pour into a 9x13 baking dish or onto a baking sheet. Generously sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake at 425 for 30-40 minutes until cooked through and golden. If you like it to have a more grilled taste then you can broil it for a few minutes at the end.
Serve with a green salad and crusty bread.
