  • 12 ounces Italian sausage, sliced into ¼-inch thick pieces
  • ½ pound green beans, trimmed
  • 1 pound broccolini, trimmed
  • 1 large yellow onion, quartered, then halved
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, drained
  • ½ cup basil
  • ¼ cup almonds
  • 1 clove garlic
  • ½ cup olive oil, or as needed
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for topping
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 F.
  2. Bring a pot of water to boil.
  3. Cook the tortellini to al dente, about 3 minutes, then drain, reserving ½ cup pasta water.
  4. Add the sliced sausage, trimmed green beans, trimmed broccolini, and chopped onion to a large foil-lined sheet pan or 2 half-sized sheet pans.
  5. Toss with ¼ cup olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  6. Roast for 10 minutes, then add the tortellini to the sheet pan and roast for another 15-20 minutes, or until sausage is cooked through and vegetables are roasted.
  7. In the meantime, make the pesto. Add the sun-dried tomatoes, basil, almonds, and garlic to a food processor.
  8. Pulse to chop.
  9. Add the olive oil slowly, while pulsing, until combined.
  10. Add the Parmesan and pulse until just combined.
  11. Once the sausage and vegetables are roasted, toss with the red pesto, adding the reserved pasta water to combine smoothly.
  12. Serve the sausage and tortellini bake, optionally topped with Parmesan.
