Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, combine the sausage, potatoes, and green beans. Drizzle with olive oil and add the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper.

Toss everything until evenly coated. Transfer to the prepared baking dish, spreading in an even layer. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Step 4: Finish Baking
Remove foil, stir, and bake uncovered for another 20-25 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and slightly crispy.
Step 5: Serve & Enjoy!
Remove from oven, let rest a few minutes, and serve warm!
Cook’s Notes
- Sausage: Smoked sausage is great, but Italian sausage or kielbasa work well too!
