Smoked sausage and potatoes

I tried a new recipe last night. It was smoked sausage and potatoes. Let me just start off by saying, it was AMAZING. Easy and affordable too. We didn't have much in the house but I saw some potatoes and automatically knew I was going to be using them. But I didn't know what to with them. Should I make baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, fried potatoes? So I started looking for a new recipe I'd never tried before and stumbled upon this one, http://recipesfromthebigbluebinder.blogspot.com/2012/08/oven-roasted-smoked-sausage-and-potatoes.html. It looked yummy and didn't call for many ingredients. So it was settled; that's what I would be making.

First, I gathered my ingredients (using whatever I had in the house).
- 6 potatoes, I used one Idaho and 5 red potatoes. Peeled and cubed.
- 1 package of smoked sausage. Cut into rounds.
- olive oil
- black pepper
- dried onion
- garlic salt
- salt
* I deviated from the original recipe based off of what I had

After I gather the ingredients, I preheated my oven to 400 degree F. Covered a cookie sheet with two layers of foil. And drizzled a bit of olive oil on the pan. Then I began to peel and cut my potatoes, along with my smoked sausage. After I had my potatoes cut I threw them into a bowl and mixed in my olive oil and spices. Stirring it around until every potato was lightly covered with oil. I then spread them all onto my cookie sheet. I did the same thing with my sausage and was ready to cook.

I put the sheet in the oven. Every 15 minutes I stirred the food making sure every potato was flipped. I did this for 45 minutes.

I think it turned out great. The potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. And the sausage had a great smokey flavor .
