Sausage and Vegetable Bake

I make this dish throughout the year - I just change the veggies with the seasons. The number of servings grows very quickly - depending on how many veggies you toss in. Don't forget to include good bread with the meal to sop up the juices (yum!) Note: You can substitute bottled Italian dressing. I prefer the salad dressing listed.

• Ready In: 2 hrs 20 mins
• Serves: 4-6

Ingredients

• 1  package  Good Seasonings Italian salad dressing mix
• 1⁄4 cup  balsamic vinegar
• 3  tablespoons water
• 1⁄2 cup olive oil

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
2. Make the Good Seasons Italian Dressing using the balsamic vinegar, water and olive oil.
3. Measure out 1/2 cup and set aside -- save the rest for another meal (It's an excellent salad dressing).
4. Place sausage and veggies in a shallow baking dish (I use a 9"x13" pan).
5. Add the 1/2 cup of dressing and toss to coat.
6. Bake covered in the oven for 2 hours.
