Notes
Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave until warmed through.
Ingredients: Italian sausages come in mild, sweet, or hot varieties – choose based on your spice preference. You can also use chicken sausage or turkey sausage for a leaner option.
Prep ahead: You can slice the peppers and onions up to 2 days ahead and store them in the fridge. Mix your oil and seasonings ahead of time, too. When you’re ready to cook, just toss everything together and bake.
Serve with: This pairs perfectly with a simple green salad, air fryer broccoli, garlic bread, or a side of pasta. You can also serve it over cauliflower rice for a lighter meal, or stuff it into toasted hoagie rolls for classic sausage and pepper sandwiches.
