Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. On a large rimmed sheet pan, toss 3 cups cubed peeled pumpkin and 3 cups halved Brussels sprouts with 4 tbsp olive oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, 12 chopped fresh sage leaves, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes if using. Spread evenly.
Step 2: Nestle 4 Italian sausage links among the vegetables on the sheet pan.
Step 3: Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning vegetables and sausages halfway through, until sausages are cooked through (internal temp 160°F) and vegetables are tender with caramelized edges.
Step 4: Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
