This is such a simple and easy meal. It takes less than 10 minutes to chop everything up and it takes 40 minutes in the oven to make. At first, when I tried this, I used this really awful spicy sausage. I got it, thinking that it wouldn\u2019t be that spicy but holy heck, this was the most spiciest sausage I\u2019ve ever had.
\nSmoked Sausage was not something that was a familiar ingredient in my home when I was growing up. I had never even heard of it. I discovered it shortly after I moved out to Western Canada as a young Bride . . .
\nThis is a really delicious oven baked meal that will have your family scrambling for seconds. I guarantee. It\u2019s a bit healthier however because it is baked and not fried. There is cheese though . . . but when is that ever a bad thing?
\nBut, then I realized I didn\u2019t have enough foil, so into the oven it went! Smoked sausage in all it\u2019s smoky, salty, savory glory, creamy baby yellow potatoes (and a few pink ones thrown in there) and of course some sweet onion; and this Smoked Sausage and Potato Sheet Pan Dinner was born!<\/p>\n

Preheat the oven to 400*F.
\nLine a large baking tray (with sides) with several sheets of foil, and spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
\nPut the sausage rounds, onions, and potatoes into a large bowl. Drizzle with a couple TBS of olive oil and season to taste with salt, pepper, paprika and dried thyme. Toss together with your hands until everything is evenly distributed. Pour this out onto the baking tray, and spread it out as much as you can.<\/p>\n
Place into the heated oven and roast for 45 minutes to an hour, stirring every 15 minutes or so, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender. Turn off the oven.
\nScatter the cheese over top of the cooked meat and potatoes, Pop back into the oven a few minutes to melt the cheese.<\/p>\n
