Can you put apples with potatoes?

Funnily enough, you never want to store apples and potatoes together because they'll go bad faster. But for this recipe, they are the perfect pair and complement each other deliciously!

Should I boil the potatoes before roasting?

There's no need to boil the potatoes before roasting because they're such thin-skinned potatoes that they'll crisp up all on their own in the oven. If you were to use a different variation of potato you may want to boil them first.

What else is maple mustard good for?

Maple mustard is actually a great vegan version of honey mustard! Instead of using honey for sweetness, you swap in maple syrup! It's as simple as that.

1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
4 links fully-cooked chicken sausage, sliced (12-ounces)

Reduce oven temperature to 375°F. Remove roasting pan from the oven. Scrape potatoes up from the pan with a spatula. Add sausage, apples and the mustard mixture to the potatoes and toss to combine.
