This easy Air Fryer Potatoes and Sausage Meal is a one pot dinner that everyone is sure to love. Plus, it's all air fried so no oven needed!
AIR FRYER POTATOES AND SAUSAGE MEAL
The idea for this recipe actually came from a follower! She said she loved all of the one pot/pan meals like the BAKED SHEET PAN CHICKEN PARMESAN and CROCK POT BEEF STEW recipes but wanted some one pot meal recipes for her air fryer. So, that got the wheels turning for me. If I was going to come up with a recipe it had to be easy and family-friendly. So, I turned to my favorite Little potatoes for help. 
TIPS FOR MAKING THIS AIR FRYER MEAL:
- Purchase fully-cooked smoked sausage - don't buy raw. Use whatever smoked sausage is your family's favorite.
- Turkey sausage or vegetarian sausages will all work for this recipe.
- Make sure to occasionally shake the basket while cooking. This will help to ensure that everything gets evenly cooked.
- Add additional veggies that your family loves. Broccoli, green peppers and cauliflower work wonderful in this.

We use to make this in the oven all the time. Then I saw this recipe for the air fryer & now we cook it in the air fryer from now on! Delicious!
The time is perfect for the air fryer! I used my Kalorik Maxx Air Fryer Oven with the basket for this. For the potatoes, I added a little onion powder and a dash of cayenne (because I like some heat) in addition to the seasonings of this recipe. I used half of a large red onion. When it was time to add the sausage, I scattered some drained and patted dry sauerkraut over the top too. I made a serving and tossed it in a small amount of spicy brown mustard. SO DELICIOUS, FAST, AND EASY!
Thanks so very much Sherrie! I really appreciate you taking the time to come back and leaving a review!
Do you have to use little potatoes or can I use small golden potatoes and just cut them into small bite sized pieces? Thanks!
Hey Matt! Nope, you sure don't, you can certainly use your favorite small yellow potatoes for this!
His recipe is so easy and delicious! I add peppers to it and some "slap ya mama" seasoning to give it a kick. We love this recipe for our family!
Made something similar to this in my air fryer. Used kielbasa with the little potatoes & greenbeans. Sprayed them with olive oil & seasoned with garlic powder and onion powder then Wrapped them in foil to make hobo packs. Very delicious
Sounds absolutely scrumptious Michelle!
HI I would love to try this but I have bad luck with air fryers the last one I had it dried out my food do have any suggestion on a good air fryer to buy
I got a Farberware air fryer for Christmas. It turned out delicious
Thank you so much Mika! So happy to hear that!
I made this for breakfast, it was wonderful. After I cooked it your way I put it on each persons dish with a soft cooked egg on top and a English Muffen. We loved it.=
Bessie - that sounds perfect! I never even thought about it for breakfast but now I am going to have to do that. Thank you!
I will be trying this recipe this weekend relaxing with my beautiful lady. Were going to cozy up by the fireplace . Drink cocoa and have potatoes and sausage. Thank you for posting.
Now that sounds like a perfect evening for you both!!
Oh my this looks so delicious and easy. I think I can smell how good it is too! Definitely on my list for an air fryer meal tomorrow. That section of text between the two photos with the zipper bags...says black powder, I totally know it means black pepper, but I did get a giggle thinking "boom!", lol. Just to let you know. I love me those little potatoes too, sooo flavorful and quick cooking. Thanks so much for this recipe, you have so many wonderful recipes. Much love!
Bahaaaa! Good catch Catherine - thank you!! It would give it a whole other meaning to the recipe!
