Ingredient Notes
Chicken sausage - A leaner alternative to pork sausage that still delivers bold, juicy flavor. Garlic herb or sun-dried tomato varieties add Mediterranean depth.
Baby potatoes - Roast up beautifully with crispy edges and creamy centers. Leaving the skins on adds fiber and rustic texture.
Bell peppers: - Sweet and colorful, they caramelize in the oven and pack a punch of vitamin C.

Red onion- Adds a mellow sharpness that roasts into a sweet, jammy finish.
Herby Mediterranean Drizzle
You want to make sure to pick a really good extra virgin olive oil since it is the base of the sauce. If you're unsure which olive oil to use, I break down the differences in my complete olive oil guide.
