Hands up who needs an easy tray bake meal right now 🙋
Recipes like this can save your weeknight cooking game. They're so simple, so versatile and the flavour to effort ratio is just a dream.
For this one you just need some sausages of your choice (I used vegetarian ones), your favourite veggies, a bit of cheese and rocket. While everything's cooking you can whip up the dressing and you're done!
The dressing is a mixture of olive oil, red wine vinegar and garlic and it add the perfect tang to this dish.
Why we love this recipe...
It's really easy to customise by changing up the vegetables you add which makes it great for using up anything that's wilting in the fridge or just choosing your favourites.
We keep it vegetarian by choosing our favourite brand of veggie sausages but you could just as easily add a meat sausage if that's what you prefer.
It would also be so easy to make it vegan by making sure you use a vegan sausage and skipping the cheese that's added just before serving.
The leftovers are also really tasty - we served ours the next day for lunch but chucking everything in a pan and frying for a couple of minutes until heated through and it brought the whole thing back to life for a second day.
Ingredients
This section is here to provide further tips and ideas for alternative ingredients. The full recipe and instructions are included in the recipe card at the bottom of the post!
Sausages: The type you use here is really up to you - meat, vegetarian and vegan sausages all work here, just keep an eye on the cooking time on the package and adjust the recipe accordingly. You might need to add the sausages in later if they need a shorter cooking time than the vegetables.
Veggies: I went for broccoli and mushroom because I love the different textures and flavours here but you could use anything that roasts well.
Rocket (Arugula): This makes a great peppery topping to this dish but watercress would also work if you prefer it.
Manchego: I love the smooth saltiness of manchego here but a parmesan would also work. Make sure whatever you choose is suitable for vegetarians if required.
Dressing: This is a simple mix of olive oil, red wine vinegar and garlic.
How to make this sausage tray bake

This sausage tray was scrumptious!! We used spicy Italian chicken sausage along with the broccoli and mushrooms. The juiced from the sausage really flavored up the vegetables. And it was so easy to make since it was on one pan.
