Sausage, green bean potato bake is a delicious comforting recipe that the whole family will enjoy!
This dish is perfect for those crazy busy weeknight dinners. With just a few minutes of prep time, just toss and bake and dinner is ready. This can be a complete meal or pair it with a fresh crisp salad.
Tips for making this sausage green bean potato bake
- I like to use both red and white baby creamer potatoes. But if you only have one or the other then it's no problem.
- I use smoked sausage, but chicken sausage, kielbasa, or even chorizo would also be delicious in this dish.
- It's not absolutely necessary to brown the sausages before baking. I just like to add that little bit of caramelization to the sausages. If you want to skip that step you sure can.
Can I use fresh green beans?
Yes, you can use fresh-cut green beans or even frozen. Just make sure to thaw the frozen green beans out beforehand.

Sausage, Green Bean, Potato Bake
Sausage green bean potato bake is a quick and easy comforting dinner. Just a few minutes prep time, dinner is ready in under an hour!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 13.5-14oz fully cooked smoked sausage
- 1 pound baby creamer potatoes (I use a mixture of red and white)
- 2- 15 oz cans green beans, drained
- ½ onion roughly chopped
- 6 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt (more to taste)
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- Fresh chopped parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees
- Slice the smoked sausage into ¼ inch thick slices. Heat a skillet on medium-high heat, add the sliced sausages and cook for 2-3 minutes to brown them.
- Wash the baby potatoes and slice in half. (If they are extra-large you may need to cut them into quarters.)
- In a bowl add the sausage, potatoes, green beans, onions, garlic, olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes and toss until coated.
- Spray a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Pour contents into the baking dish. Place on the center rack and bake for 40-45 minutes or until potatoes are tender, stirring halfway through.
- Remove from oven and add more salt and pepper if desired.
- Garnish with fresh chopped parsley!
Notes
You can use fresh or frozen green beans if desired. Just thaw frozen green beans beforehand.

Yes, any type of sausage link will work.
Hubby likes Italian sausage, would that work?
I made this using fresh green beans, country sausages with casing removed, 1/2 a Vidalia onion, and a can of whole potatoes. Seasoned with salt, pepper, and Adobo. Cooked @ 425 for 40 minutes. Was very good!
Yes, bell peppers would be delicious, and russet potatoes will work fine 🙂
Looking forward to trying this tonight. Could I add red and green bell peppers to this and use russet potatoes? Wondering how it would taste.
I've never used canned potatoes, but I imagine not very long as they are already cooked.
How long do I bake if using canned potatoes?
Yay so happy you both loved it Patsy!
This was amazing. My son said he wasn't expecting to like, but he loved it. I did boil my boil my baby red potatoes for 5 minutes because they have been too hard in all my other sheet dinners. I added a teaspoon of sugar because I always add it to my green beans.
