Savvy tips!

  • If you don’t have pumpkin seeds, you can swap them out for walnuts, almonds, or even hazelnuts. They all will add a nice + satisfying crunch to the dish.
  • To take the dish to the next level, top it with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese or a drizzle of maple syrup. The sweetness from the syrup will pair beautifully with the roasted squash and sausage.
  • Meal prep is SO SIMPLE with this recipe. Make a large batch and store individual portions in the fridge for quick and easy meals throughout the week.
  • Don’t like chicken sausage? Swap for Italian sausage, pork sausage, or turkey sausage instead! Or switch up the protein for ground turkey, ground chicken, or ground pork.
  • Sneak in extra veggies or customize to your own liking! Bell peppers, sweet potatoes, or any leftover vegetables from your fridge work great. I love adding in lots of vegetables from my fridge 🙂

FAQs

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To reheat, warm it in a large skillet with a bit of oil over medium-high heat for the best results, or popping it back in the oven works great too!

Yes, you can freeze this dish! Allow the cooked components to cool completely, then transfer them to an airtight container or freezer-safe bag. Omit the goat cheese before freezing, as dairy doesn’t freeze well and can affect the texture. When ready to eat, thaw the dish in the refrigerator overnight and reheat in a skillet or oven until warmed through. Add fresh goat cheese crumbles (if using) just before serving.

To make this recipe vegetarian, replace the chicken apple sausage with a plant-based sausage, such as Beyond Meat or Field Roast, or swap it for white beans like cannellini or great northern beans for added protein. You can also simply omit the chicken sausage if preferred. The remaining ingredients are already vegetarian-friendly, so no further adjustments are needed.

To make this chicken sausage dish Whole30-friendly, omit the goat cheese and ensure the roasted pumpkin seeds are unsweetened and free of non-compliant oils. Replace the chicken apple sausage with a Whole30-compliant brand like Aidells or Applegate (check for no added sugar or preservatives). Use olive oil or avocado oil for roasting and cooking, as these are Whole30-approved.

This Chicken Sausage Hash with Roasted Veggies is the perfect blend of savory, sweet, and satisfying. The combination of crispy sausage, creamy goat cheese, and crunchy seeds makes every bite a little different from the last—and so delicious! With simple ingredients found at your local grocery store, this recipe is such a breeze to whip up. Good luck finding an easier dinner idea. Hope you love it!!
