Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 2 medium zucchini, sliced into half circles
- 12 ounces green beans, cut into halves or thirds
- 1 bell pepper (any color), cored and cut into 1-inch strips
Seasoning & Oil
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (or avocado oil spray)
- 2 teaspoons dried basil
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Protein
- 12 ounces fully cooked sausages (4 dinner-sized links), sliced into 1/4-inch thick circles
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Heat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s at the right temperature for roasting the vegetables and sausages evenly.
- Prepare Vegetables and Sausage: In a large bowl, toss the sliced zucchini, green beans, and bell pepper with olive oil, dried basil, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until everything is well-coated. Then add the sliced sausages to the bowl and gently mix to combine flavors.
- Air Fry the Mixture: Place the seasoned sausage and vegetable mixture in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 15-18 minutes, shaking the basket or stirring halfway through to allow even cooking and browning.
- Check Doneness and Serve: Once the sausages are heated through and vegetables are tender with slightly crisp edges, remove from the air fryer. Serve immediately for a warm and satisfying meal.
Notes
- Using fully cooked sausages reduces cooking time and ensures even heating.
- You can swap out vegetables based on seasonality or preference, such as using asparagus or cherry tomatoes.
- Adjust seasoning to taste, adding more garlic powder or herbs if desired.
- If using raw sausage, additional cooking time is needed to ensure it is fully cooked through.
