I am loving sheet pan dinners lately. And with this new recipe using both sausage links and mini potatoes that are ready to go out of the bag, homemade dinner really doesn’t get much easier (or faster) than this! You can have it in the oven within 10 to 15 minutes max! We also used those pre-cooked brown rice packets (that take 90 seconds to heat up in the microwave), but if you have more time, whole-grain wild rice would be great, too. My kids decided to top theirs with some runny fried eggs and said it was deeelicious. We’ll be making this one again and again, for sure! Try these Stuffed Mini Peppers and these Deconstructed Stuffed Peppers too!

Do the bratwurst not break the rules by having unnatural ingredients like preservatives in?
Hi Adam. Lisa usually gets her bratwurst from the local farmers’ market, which is still within the real food rules. You can read more about the rules here: https://www.100daysofrealfood.com/real-food-defined-a-k-a-the-rules/
