- 1 onion, cut into wedges
- 4 garlic cloves, sliced
- 2 Tbsp dried mixed herbs
- 1 can (400g) diced tomatoes

- Spread the diced tomatoes into the base of a large roasting dish then season and top with the vegetables.
- Bake for 15 minutes, then carefully remove the tray from the oven and nestle the sausages into the vegetables. Bake for a further 30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and the sausages have cooked through.

Top tip: Make a delicious fresh herb seasoning to garnish your toasty tray bake by mixing together a quarter cup of torn fresh basil and parsley leaves with one finely chopped garlic clove and a quarter cup of olive oil. Season to taste.
