Sausage and Sweet Potato Traybake

This Easy Sausage and Sweet Potato Traybake is the ultimate easy peasy midweek meal! Simply place sausages, sweet potatoes, peppers and onions in a baking tray, drizzle over some oil, add some seasoning and roast in the oven – that’s it. Perfect for when life is super busy, but you still want to eat well.

📝 Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 8 good quality sausages ((the nice big ones, I usually use Tesco Finest Traditional Pork))
• 500 g sweet potatoes ((roughly one large one) chopped into large chunks (see Note 1))
• 3 red/yellow/orange peppers (cut into large chunks)
• 2 red onions (cut into thick wedges)
• 8 cloves garlic (bashed with skins still on)
• 3 sprigs thyme ((and/or rosemary))
• Salt and black pepper to taste

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat your oven to 200C / 180C fan / gas mark 6 / 400F.
2. 2Place all the ingredients in a large oven tray or roasting tin.
3. 3Use your hands (or two large spoons) to turn everything in the oil, so it is well coated. Rearrange everything on the tray with the vegetables in one layer and the sausages on top (see Note 2).
4. 4Place the tray in the oven for 25 minutes.
5. 5After 25 minutes remove the tray from the oven, remove the sausages onto a plate and turn the vegetables. Replace the sausages on top with the least cooked side facing upwards (see Note 3).
6. 6Return the traybake to the oven for a further 20 minutes, or until everything is done to your liking (45 minutes total cooking time).
7. 7Serve just as it is, or with a simple side salad.
