Common Recipe Questions
- → Can I substitute chicken sausage with tofu?
Yes, extra-firm tofu works well as a plant-based alternative, absorbing the seasonings and roasting until crispy.
- → What vegetables can I use in this dish?
Besides bell peppers, zucchini, carrots, and cherry tomatoes, you can swap in broccoli, sweet potatoes, or mushrooms based on preference.
- → How do I ensure even cooking on the sheet pan?
Spread the veggies and sausage in a single layer and stir halfway through roasting to promote even browning and tenderness.
- → Is this dish gluten-free?
It can be gluten-free if you use gluten-free sausages or tofu and ensure all seasoning ingredients are free from gluten contamination.
- → What are some good serving suggestions?
Serve alongside crusty bread, rice, or quinoa for a complete and satisfying meal.
