Ingredients needed

This section explains how to choose the best ingredients for this andouille sausage sheet pan dinner recipe, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options. For a printable recipe, see the recipe card below.

12 ounces frozen butternut squash - frozen butternut squash chunks are such an amazing freezer staple!  Butternut squash is so hard to chop and freezing is just as good as fresh.

1 red bell pepper, sliced - you could also use any color of bell pepper here.

½ teaspoon Italian seasoning - For a more cajun flare, use cajun seasoning instead.  You can also add some cayenne pepper for some added heat.

1 teaspoon garlic powder - alternatively you can use a few cloves of garlic.

1 teaspoon kosher salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoons avocado oil - you can use any oil you like.  Olive oil works too!

12 ounces andouille sausage (4 links) - The Aidells sausages I used come 4 in a pack but you could easily put more andouille sausages on the tray.  You could even add shrimp or other seafood to the sheet tray halfway through the cooking time!
