MMM. This is so darn tasty, I had to get on here and get it posted. My apologies for the hiatus on posting--have been busy working on other house projects and gifts for Christmas, among other things. Anyway, I have been cooking and noting some recipes, will catch up soon enough (perhaps it will be a snowy winter for once...hoping!)
Back to this recipe...it's lots of veggies and kielbasa, super easy, and super tasty: 10+/10! Just make it and try it already, will ya?

Recipe below contains my modifications.
Ingredients:
1/2 T. dried basil
1/2 T. dried thyme
1/2 T. dried oregano
1/2 T. paprika
3/4 tsp. onion powder (note to self: used the Market Pantry one, which is closer to granulated)
1 tsp. kosher salt
1/2 tsp. coarse ground black pepper
1 lb. baby/small red and/or yellow potatoes, halved or quartered (I used a mix of both, the 'little potato company' one)
8 oz. baby carrots (or regular carrots, peeled), cut into 1/2" matchstick pieces
3 T. olive oil, divided
1 bunch asparagus, snapped at break point, woody ends discarded
1 medium red onion, sliced into 1/4" half-rounds
14 oz. kielbasa, sliced into 1/4" rounds
1 T. bottled minced garlic
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 400°F (note to self: used top oven, convection roasting setting, at 400). If not using a nonstick baking sheet, line a large one with aluminum foil (I used nonstick, did fine without lining).
2. In a small bowl, combine basil, thyme, oregano, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
3. In a large bowl, stir together the potatoes, carrots, and 2 T. of the olive oil. Add HALF of the spice mixture and stir to coat/combine.
4. Pour mixture onto large (prepared) baking sheet and bake/roast for 20 minutes.
5. In same large bowl used for the potatoes mixture, combine the remaining ingredients (asparagus, red onion, kielbasa, garlic, and remaining 1 T. olive oil). Add the other HALF of the spice mixture and stir to coat/combine.
6. After potatoes and carrots have baked/roasted for 20 min, push them all to one side of the pan, then pour the kielbasa mixture onto the other half of the pan. Return pan to oven and continue baking/roasting for 15-20 min, until veggies reach desired texture (I went 20). Note: I often find it easier to just use a second pan, as often everything is a bit too crowded.
7. Pour entire pan (or both pans, if you used more than 1) into a bowl, stir to combine, serve up and enjoy!
