Ingredients
2 tbsp olive oil, divided
1 small butternut squash, diced
2 cups brussels sprouts, sliced in half
2 cloves garlic minced
1 medium-sized yellow onion, diced
3 celery stalks, finely chopped
1 red pepper, diced
1 apple, sliced and diced into small piecs
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh sage (I would not recommend dried here - you need the fresh stuff!)
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary (or 2 tsp dried)
Salt & pepper to taste
Turkey sausage
1 lb Ground chicken or turkey
1 tbsp fennel seeds
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp each salt and pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450 F. In a large bowl, mix together ingredients for turkey sausage.
Add butternut squash and brussels sprouts to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper then drizzle on a bit of olive oil and season with some salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a very large skillet over med-high heat. Add turkey sausage (you can also use store bought and remove casings), then break up with a slotted spoon, cooking until just browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove turkey from skillet and add in onions, celery, red pepper and apple, then drizzle with a tiny bit of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Saute for about 7-8 minutes until veggies soften.
Add turkey sausage back to skillet with other veggies - right around this time squash should be coming out of the oven. Add that to the skillet along with rosemary and sage and saute another 2-3 minutes, stirring everything very well.
Serve immediately or divide into meal prep bowls. Leftovers will last in fridge up to 5 days.
