A perfect meal for when you aren't in the mood for cooking. I went to the dentist yesterday so was feeling sorry for myself and a little sore. For lunch, The Bloke made me a lovely chicken soup which was so comforting (recipe here).
When it came to the evening I was in a little less pain and able to eat properly again, but still not really in the mood to put in much effort, so I made an old favourite of ours. Sausage, squash & broccoli baked in a roasting tray with garlic and sage and left it cook itself. A couple of wraps and a yoghurt sauce and it was ready.
Ingredients: (serves 2)
6 large pork sausages
1/2 head broccoli
1/2 squash, peeled
1/2 red pepper, sliced
1 onion, sliced thickly
4-5 cloves garlic, skin on
drizzle olive oil
1 red chilli, sliced thinly (optional)
few leaves sage, chopped (optional)
pack of flour tortillas
Get a small roasting tray ready and set the oven to 170 C. Cut the broccoli and squash into strips. Put into the tray with the red pepper, onion and garlic. Cut the sausages into bite size and add to the top. Sprinkle over the chilli and sage (if using), drizzle with very little olive oil and season with salt & black pepper. Toss together lightly.
Cover with foil and cook in the oven for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and cook, uncovered for a further 20 minutes to brown the sausages and veg.
For the yoghurt sauce:
1 cup natural low fat yoghurt
1 tsp. garlic powder
small handful fresh coriander, chopped
Combine the yoghurt, garlic powder and coriander in a bowl and serve with the sausage bake in the tray along with a few flour tortilla. Wrap up and enjoy!
Note: I keep the skins on the garlic, its a bit of a personal preference, but you can pop the roasted garlic out of the skin if preferred.
