This One Pan Mediterranean Chicken Sausage & Vegetables dish is the perfect weeknight meal. Healthy, easy clean up, and it takes less than 10 minutes to prep!
I’m a little embarrassed to admit that I’m only just now experimenting with one pan meals. This really is a food trend that makes sense. Just one pan to clean and it’s packed with veggies and protein! I love to cook some fancy 5 pan stuff, but some nights… I just don’t have it in me to do much more than cut veggies.
The one pan option is simple, nutritious, and there’s leftovers for breakfast! Not that Vegas and I weren’t tempted to eat the whole things that night. When we finished, she said, “I’d have that again.” (This is the highest compliment in our house.)
This is also a customizable dish. You can use whatever veggies you have on had. I added sweet potatoes for a little bulk, but you could use any starchy vegetable.
For this dish, I decided to make it a Mediterranean theme. It’s packed with bell peppers and zucchini, and seasoned with oregano and garlic. I topped with with feta to compete the Mediterranean theme. It sort of reminded me of the Baked Feta (Feta Psiti) we recreated from our Greece trip!
Remember when I said the leftovers were good? Or are you just skimming my riveting post?! 😉
It was awesome for breakfast the next day with an egg on top. #yolkporn

Have you ever made a one pan dinner?
What’s your go-to quickie dinner?
The sheet meals are really great! I love easy weeknight meals that my boys will eat
They’ll be making a more regular appearance in our house, for sure!
I love one pan dinners and mediterranean flavors are one of my favorites! This is going on next weeks dinner list! And your pictures look super nice and bright, might I add!
YAY! And thank you… I was stressed because I forgot it’s darker earlier and the light was horrific.
Yum yum! Thanks for sharing. I love one-pan meals – makes cleanup so easy 🙂
Have a great Friday!
Anything for fewer dishes, right? 😉
It’s so funny to me that this is a “trend.” I grew up thinking this was how all people cooked.
Really?! My mom had like 5 pots going, plus a double oven. I guess it’s a Southern thing… Southern women love to cook for an army!
one you sheet pan you won’t stop. OH SHEEEEEEEET! LOL! I’m lame
HAHAHA! You’re not lame. You’re corny. (See what I did there? 😉 )
I love one pan dishes – they are right at my level of cooking and clean up usually.
Me too, these days!

I soooooo wish I’d had avocado!

Dammit. I should have made that for you!
Love the Mediterranean flavors! So quick too!
