    🍯 Why This Recipe Works

    1. It's quick. With less than 30 minutes on the clock, you can have a tasty meal in minutes. From prep to table, this dish is perfect for a fast meal on those busy nights. Fast dinners like this gnocchi meal and our Lazy Enchiladas With Taquitos are recipes we go-to when we want fast, easy, and delicious.
    2. It's simple. Just wash your sausage and veggies, slice, and mix with seasonings before baking. We won't need many items to make this sheet pan meal, and you can toss it all together on the pan before baking.
    3. It's cheap. Even with food inflation prices, garden fresh veggies and sausages seem to remain frugal options for the table (as long as the veggies are in season). Made with basic seasonings, we calculated this recipe to cost about $11, which is almost as cheap as our Sausage Green Bean Potato Casserole!

    🥘 Ingredients

    baking sheet topped with veggies and gnocchi and sausage.

    Ingredient Notes:

    Cherry tomatoes- Use red cherry tomatoes or colorful grape tomatoes. Either way, they'll add color and tangy goodness to the meal.

    If you still have cherry tomatoes to use up I highly recommend trying them in our Tilapia with Spinach and Tomatoes, Scrambled Eggs with Spinach and Tomatoes, or Homemade Hamburger Helper.

    Summer squash- You will want to use a combination of yellow squash and zucchini so that you get delicious seasonal flavors and some colorful variety.

    Smoked turkey sausage- We like to use smoked sausage, but you can use kielbasa or other sausages instead.

    Potato gnocchi- We get our gnocchi from Dollar Tree, so it's pretty cheap. That said you can use any gnocchi variety or brand based on what you'd like.

    For specific ingredients and measurements, please see the recipe card below.

    🧾 Substitutions

    Meat Options: Feel free to omit the sausage if preferred or substitute it with a similar style meat of your choice. While I opted for smoked turkey sausage from Walmart, other varieties like pork or chicken sausage would be suitable replacements.

    Tomato Varieties: I advise against substituting cherry tomatoes with larger varieties like Roma tomatoes, as they may not hold up well during baking due to excess moisture. Instead, consider using grape tomatoes or other small tomato varieties for best results.

    📖 Variations

    Adding Bell Peppers: For added flavor, consider including thinly sliced bell peppers with the onions. While optional, green or red peppers can complement the dish nicely. Aim for about half of a pepper if you decide to include them.

    Seasonal Additions: To add variety, incorporate sweet potato or butternut squash diced into 1-inch cubes. Include approximately 1 cup of either vegetable at the start of the recipe to ensure they are evenly coated in oil and seasonings.

    🔪 Instructions for Sheet Pan Gnocchi With Sausage and Vegetables

    Step 1: Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Set aside.

    Step 2: Slice your zucchini and yellow squash into ¼ inch thick rounds and then slice each one in half.

    Step 3: Place the zucchini, yellow squash, gnocchi, turkey sausage, and onion onto the baking sheet.

    Step 4: Drizzle with olive oil.

    Step 5: Top with minced garlic and seasonings.

    Step 6: Toss everything together to coat it well. Spread the mixture out evenly into a single layer on the pan.

    Step 7: Bake in the oven for 10 minutes.

    Step 8: While it's baking, slice the cherry tomatoes in half.

    Step 9: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle on the cherry tomatoes. Bake for an additional 10 minutes.

    Serve warm and enjoy.

    🍴 Recipe Tips

    Adjusting Spice Level

    The red pepper in this recipe adds a kick. If you prefer mild flavors, feel free to omit it entirely. For those who enjoy spicy food, start with ¼ teaspoon and adjust to taste next time.

    Initially, I used ¼ teaspoon, but found it too spicy for my family's liking. I reduced it to a pinch (⅛ teaspoon) for a milder flavor.

    🍳 Reheating

    Microwave vs. Stove/Oven: While microwaving is a quick option, it may sacrifice some of the dish's crispiness. For optimal results, consider reheating on the stove or in the oven.

    Stovetop Reheating: For leftovers, heat a large skillet with a teaspoon of olive oil to prevent sticking. Cook over medium heat until heated through, ensuring the dish regains its crispness.

    💭 Recipe FAQs

    How long is sheet pan baked gnocchi good for?

    The leftovers from this dish can be saved in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Just reheat when ready to eat.

    Where to buy gnocchi

    I purchase my gnocchi from the local dollar tree because I find that the containers are the same price at half the cost of my local grocery store. I almost always keep a package two in the pantry for quick dinners (I use them as dumplings in my soups).

    How to make vegan sheet pan gnocchi dinner

    First, make sure that the gnocchi you are using is 100% vegan as some often contain dairy or eggs. Next, swap out the turkey sausage for vegan sausage. Then just make and bake as directed.
