The 5-Ingredient Pasta Recipe I Make Every Single Week

0 · Oct 1, 2018 · Kiersten · Leave a Comment

I debated about whether to post this recipe because it’s so simple, it hardly even qualifies as a recipe. But sometimes those are the exact kinds of meal ideas we need, right? This Sheet Pan Broccoli and Sausage with Pasta is on my menu plan literally every week.

Every week? Every week!

Sheet Pan Garlic Broccoli and Italian Sausage with Pasta
I keep things fresh by switching up the vegetables–broccoli and cauliflower are my two favorites, but mushrooms, eggplant, zucchini, and green beans all work too. I roast the vegetables on a sheet pan together with vegan sausage–I love Tofurky’s Italian sausage and the Spinach Pesto variety for this.

Vegetarian sausage is one of my go-to methods for adding plant-based protein to a meal. Because they pack in a lot of protein! Most have between 20-30 grams for a single link thanks to the seitan and tofu they’re made with. You can up the protein even more by opting for a pasta made with bean flour.

While the broccoli and sausage is roasting, I cook the pasta–any kind will work!–and heat up the sauce. Divide everything up into bowls and you have a simple, wholesome dinner that comes together in minutes.
