Why we love it
Looking for an easy recipe that will help you use your air fryer? This air fryer sausage and veggies recipe is quick and easy to make, and makes a great one-dish meal that everyone will love.
You can use any type of meat sausages you wish, I’m using veal beef sausages in this particular instance. Just cut up all the sausages and the vegetables and place them in a baking dish without holes within the air fryer.
The real trick is to place the sausages on top of the veggies at the beginning so that all those lovely juices flow down and infuse the veggies, while at the same time letting the sausages turn crispy on top.
Then toss the sausages and vegetables every 5-10 minutes while they are cooking in the air fryer, so that the juices flow through nicely.
Cooking tips
- If using frozen broccoli, let them defrost before cooking with the sausages.
- Frozen brussels sprouts tend to have a slightly milder flavor than the fresh ones, if that is what you prefer. However, do let them defrost before cooking with the sausages.
What to serve with it?
This delicious air fryer sausage and veggie combo can be served by itself, or with a side like air fryer sweet potato wedges or instant pot mashed potatoes. You can also serve it with a starter like homemade mushroom soup.
How to store it?
This air fryer sausage and vegetable dish can easily be prepared in advance, just let it cool completely and place it in an airtight glass container. It should keep for at least a day or so.
When ready to eat, just put them back in the air fryer at 380°F (190°C) for 5-7 minutes to make them crispy again.
