Follow The Directions
01
Step
Position oven racks in the middle and upper third of the oven; preheat to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line two 10x15-inch baking sheets with aluminum foil. (5 minutes)
02
Step
In a large bowl, combine tomatoes, bell peppers, onion, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Italian seasoning, ⅛ teaspoon of salt, and ⅛ teaspoon of black pepper. Transfer to one of the prepared baking sheets. (10 minutes)
03
Step
Roast in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
04
Step
While the vegetables roast, drizzle bread slices with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with the remaining ⅛ teaspoon of salt and ⅛ teaspoon of black pepper. Arrange on the other prepared baking sheet. (5 minutes)
05
Step
Remove the vegetables from the oven and push them to one side of the baking sheet. Add the sausage to the exposed portion of the baking sheet. (2 minutes)
06
Step
Roast until the vegetables are tender and the sausage is heated through, approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Add the bread to the oven during the last 5 minutes of cooking time so it toasts but doesn't burn. (15 minutes)
07
Step
Sprinkle the vegetables and sausage with fresh oregano. Serve immediately with the toasted bread.
For an extra layer of flavor, try using a flavored balsamic vinegar, such as fig or raspberry.
Feel free to substitute your favorite type of sausage, such as hot Italian sausage or sweet Italian sausage.
If you don't have fresh oregano, you can use dried oregano. Use about 1 teaspoon of dried oregano in place of the fresh.
To make ahead: The vegetables can be prepped ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Add the sausage just before roasting.
Serve over pasta or polenta for a heartier meal.
