How To Make the Sheet Pan Ratatouille

Step 1: Prep the Veggies

Wash and slice all your vegetables into similar-sized rounds or half-moons. Halve the cherry tomatoes and slice the sausage if using.

Step 2: Season and Toss

Place everything on a large sheet pan. Drizzle generously with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper. Toss gently with your hands to ensure even coating.

Step 3: Roast to Perfection

Roast at 425°F (220°C) for about 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until veggies are golden and slightly crisp on the edges.

Step 4: Garnish and Serve

Sprinkle with fresh herbs like parsley or basil before serving. Enjoy warm straight from the pan or store for later meals.
