Sheet Pan Sausage and Veggie Pasta

Everything goes on one sheet pan, roasts until caramelized and delicious, then gets tossed with cooked pasta. The vegetables get that gorgeous roasted sweetness and the sausage crisps up perfectly at the edges. It's the kind of dinner that looks like you planned it but takes almost no effort.
