Ingredients:

2 medium potatoes (about 10 oz), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon dried Italian herbs

Salt to taste

Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Optional: 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes for mild heat

Preparation Steps:

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Toss the cubed potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast potatoes in the oven for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, toss green beans with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper.
After 20 minutes, add green beans to the baking sheet with potatoes and roast for an additional 12-15 minutes until potatoes are golden and green beans are tender-crisp.
While vegetables roast, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add Italian sausages and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 12-15 minutes.
Remove sausages from skillet and let rest for 3 minutes, then slice into 1/2-inch pieces.
