Tray Bake Recipes

Whether you're craving a hearty chicken and potato bake, a vibrant veggie medley or a flavorful Mediterranean-inspired dish, tray bakes bring big flavours with minimal effort. Making a traybake is very simple. Firstly, you'll need to decide which ingredients you want to use. Some of the ingredients you'll need include:

• Your choice of protein: Protein sets the foundation for your tray bake, you can use sausages, fish, chicken, beef, chickpeas or tofu for plant-based options.
• A variety of vegetables: Add a pop of colour with vegetables like tomatoes, peppers and onions.
• Olive oil
• Salt and pepper
• Herbs and spices: Your tray bake needs herbs and spices like cumin, rosemary, thyme and paprika.

Once you've decided on your ingredients, the hard part is done. Simply preheat your oven to 200°C, prepare your ingredients by slicing and seasoning them, drizzle with oil and toss until they're fully coated - then pop everything into the oven, baking for 25-35 minutes.

You can customise the ingredients and seasonings to your taste. If you need any inspiration, browse our traybake dinner recipes above.
