WW Recipe of the Day: Skinny Italian Sausage Sub Sheet Pan Supper for Two
Driving across country I became more than familiar with Subway sandwiches and salads. They are at so many gas stations and rest areas. Back home I rarely go, however they are a healthy lifesaver when traveling.
Here's my skinny sheet pan rendition, substituting turkey sausage for the salami. It's an easy, healthy way to produce a satisfying dinner at home with all the flavors of your favorite sausage sub.

Recipe Notes
Sausages usually have a lot of salt as do garnishes like parmesan cheese and catsup so avoid using salt to season the tray before baking.
If you use uncooked sausages, pop them in the oven 20 minutes before adding the vegetables. Use your favorite meat and brand of sausage. Pork, turkey, chicken, or any combo of ingredients will work. Just be sure to adjust your WW points accordingly if it's a concern.
If the sausages get brown before the veggies are soft enough, use tongs to turn them over while the veggies finish cooking.
If you do feel like an old fashioned sub, then use buns to serve the sausages on with the veggies on and around the plate. Divine!
Other vegetables like cauliflower or zucchini can be roasted along with the veggies for a slightly unorthodox sub.
Serving Suggestions
While the dinner bakes, set out the sides and toppings which can include mustard, catsup, a dish of marinara sauce for dipping, shredded parmesan, and pepperoncini.
Bread rounds or croutons would also be good here.
Serve a simple green salad alongside and some skinny fruit sorbet for dessert.

Ways to Use Leftovers
Toss any remaining sub supper leftovers with a few chopped lettuce leaves for a quick deli salad. Add a few of the above garnishes to dress it up. Leftovers will keep several days in a covered container in the fridge.

Similar to a dish my mom made growing up. She added potatoes, but I like this version with the beans instead.
