Make Every Minute Count!

The beauty of this dish is that you don’t have to have everything ready when you begin to cook your meal. Take advantage of cooking hacks by using the time between steps to prep as you go!

– Wash and chop up the sweet potatoes while the oven preheats to the suggested temperature. As a rule of thumb, 1 pound is equivalent to about 2 large or 3 medium-sized sweet potatoes.

– Arrange the sweet potatoes along with the turkey sausage on a baking sheet and pop in the oven. Make every second count by chopping the red peppers while the first ingredient batch is roasting. Use the same cutting board to minimize cleanup time – keep it there for slicing the sausage too.

– In the meantime, prep your rice so that when you pull out the tray with your tender sweet potatoes, sausage, and peppers your grains will be ready to go.

20-60 minutes: Butternut or acorn squash – these vegetables will vary in cook time, depending on the size of the pieces you cut. Smaller pieces will be ready in less time.

30-45 minutes: Onions – along with root vegetables, such as beets, potatoes, and carrots, these can be roasted until they reach the desired crispiness!

15-25 minutes: Roast Brussels sprouts, broccoli and cauliflower typically take this long to get a nicely charred, toasted edges. Now that you’re an oven pro, this Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Rice recipe will be a piece of cake!

15-20 minutes: Tomatoes don’t take long to roast, but you may want to roast them separately as they will release a lot of liquid.

10-20 minutes: Asparagus and green beans are thin, so they don’t need quite as long. Similarly, softer vegetables like zucchini, summer squash, and bell peppers roast quickly.
