Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I use pork or beef sausage instead of turkey sausage?
Yes! Use any sausage you like — turkey, chicken, beef, or plant-based.

2. Can I make this dish in the air fryer?
Yes, it works in large-capacity air fryers. Cook at 380°F for 20–25 minutes, shaking halfway.

3. What are the best potatoes for roasting?
Baby red and golden potatoes roast well and hold their shape. Yukon gold or russet work too.

4. Can I prep this ahead of time?
Definitely. Chop everything in the morning and store in the fridge. Just toss and roast at dinnertime.

5. Is this meal gluten-free?
Yes, as long as your sausage is labeled gluten-free.

6. How do I make it spicier?
Add red pepper flakes or hot sauce to the seasoning mix.

7. What if I don’t have Cajun seasoning?
You can substitute Italian seasoning or make your own mix with paprika, garlic powder, and thyme.

8. Can I freeze leftovers?
Yes. Store in an airtight container and freeze for up to 1 month. Reheat in oven or air fryer.

9. Is this dish healthy?
It can be! Turkey sausage is leaner than traditional sausage, and roasting uses less oil.

10. Can I double the recipe?
Absolutely — use two baking sheets or roast in batches for even cooking.
