This cheesy sausage potato bake is a super easy family dinner that tastes wonderful. In fact, it’s so good it’s hard to resist going back for seconds.

Sausage, potatoes, and broccoli covered in cheese

I’m always looking for ways to save time in the kitchen. I had these ingredients in the fridge, so I decided to put them together.

One-pan dinners are always good because you only have one pan to clean. Since I use foil to cover the pan, cleanup is super fast.

Another one-pan meal we enjoy is this chicken dinner. We also enjoy this one-dish Italian chicken zucchini casserole.

Balance has always been a key element when I cook meals for my husband and me. I formed this habit many years ago.

That’s why I always find a way to include a vegetable in our meals. I used broccoli, but green beans or Brussels sprouts would be just as good.

According to Health.com, broccoli is packed with nutrients, including vitamins A, B6, B12, C, magnesium, selenium, and many more.

When our daughters still lived at home, I made sure they got protein and veggies. Now that they’re grown and have their own households, I continue to cook the same way.

The big difference now is that we have leftovers. I rarely have to create something new for lunch because we usually have last night’s dinner in the refrigerator.

Cheesy Sausage Potato Bake Ingredients

Since I used items I had on hand, you can do that too. I used smoked turkey sausage, but you can use whatever kind of sausage you prefer.

Other ingredients include frozen cubed hash brown potatoes, olive oil, broccoli, cheddar cheese, seasoned salt, and pepper. If you have another vegetable, use that in place of the broccoli.

You can also use a different type of cheese. Cheddar is what I have on hand now, so that’s what I sprinkled the ingredients.

How to Make a Cheesy Sausage Potato Bake

After you preheat the oven and spray the pan with nonstick spray, mix the potatoes with olive oil.

Add the seasoned salt and pepper and spread the potatoes on a pan.

While the potatoes are cooking, cut the smoked sausage into bite-size pieces.

Next, pull the potatoes from the oven and scatter the smoked sausage and broccoli florets around the pan. Put the pan back in the oven and continue to bake until everything is done.

Finally, remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the cheese on top of everything. Return it to the oven and bake until the cheese melts.
