There are few recipes easier than a tray bake and this sausage tray bake using Heck Chicken Italia sausages is definitely going to be made again. Such an easy and tasty midweek meal.
This simple sausage tray bake is a perfect family recipe
Sausages are one of the things that everyone in our family loves. They're quick and easy to cook and there are so many things you can do with them. I'm sure we eat them most weeks.
These are healthy sausages
You may think sausages are unhealthy but these Heck Chicken Italia ones are low in fat and contain 85% chicken. They're also full of basil, sun-dried tomatoes and mozzarella which makes them a very tasty choice too.
Did everyone like this recipe?
I have to say, this chicken sausage tray bake is a really simple and delicious recipe. It's packed with colourful vegetables and you can't get easier than a one pot meal. We really enjoyed it. The children were happy to eat it too!
Can you reheat the leftovers?
It was great for leftovers the next day. Although I have to admit that we ate all the sausages on the first day! The vegetables and potatoes were lovely heated up and I'm sure if we hadn't liked the sausages as much then they would have been fine reheated too!
Just pop the leftovers in the microwave for a couple of minutes or reheat in the oven in an ovenproof dish, topped with aluminium foil.
How Heck Chicken Italia sausages are fighting cancer
As well as giving you a tasty sausage traybake recipe I'd also like to wish you a happy Movember! If you don't know, November is the month when men (well, some men) all over the country give up shaving and grow moustaches to raise awareness of testicular cancer.
Well, as a girl I couldn't manage that which is why I just created a recipe using Heck Chicken Italia sausages.
But what have sausages got to do with Movember?
Well, for this month only Heck Chicken Italia sausages have changed their name to Check to raise awareness and to encourage men everywhere to be a little less shy about their bodies and to check themselves regularly for any signs of testicular cancer.
The young founder of the Heck brand is himself a survivor of testicular cancer. Through spotting the signs early, going to the GP and getting the necessary treatment, he is one of the lucky ones.
If more men would do the same, there would be even more lucky ones. And that's the message that Heck Sausages are trying to get across this month with their low fat gluten-free Chicken Italia sausages. Check.

This looks like a great weeknight dinner. This time of year we are so rushed...and it would make great leftovers too.

I have never baked sausages before but this recipe sounds so delicious and easy I just might give it a try thanks for sharing!

Thanks! I hope you enjoy it.
Michelle @ Vitamin Sunshine
I've been working on more simple dinners like this! This time of year you need to simplify dinner to keep healthy dinners coming in the midst of holiday chaos.
Corina
Exactly!

I've never heard of a traybake, but I like it! Anything to reduce my clean up time is a good thing!
Corina
Me too! I love one pots and traybakes for that!
Kim @ Three Olives Branch
The flavors in those Italian sausages sound amazing! And I love roasted veggies, this looks wonderful!
Corina
Thank you! The sausages are really lovely.
Garlic + Zest
I love recipes like this -- that are more like assembly and less like cooking - and there is nothing better than a tray of roasted vegetables and some good sausages!
Corina
I couldn't agree more and of course you could vary it a lot depending on what vegetables you want to use up.

Yum! This looks fab - always a huge fan of traybakes, as you know. Sausage ones are particularly fab, we have one every week - it's my Monday quick and easy meal. I must say I have never tried Heck sausages, but I have been hearing lots of good things about them. And how great that they changed their name for Movember! Thanks for linking up with #CookBlogShare 🙂 Eb x
Corina
I know you love traybakes Eb - I think you made a good sausage one recently too! They are so great for just throwing everything into the oven and leaving to cook.
Louise Fairweather
Oh I do love a good traybake. Looks delicious #cookblogshare

Thanks Louise - not many things beat a traybake for an easy meal!
Jacqui Bellefontaine
What a perfect recipe for this time of the year and a great way to serve sausages. so easy I like it. Not too keen on chicken sausages myself so ill stick to my favs from our Suffolk butcher
Corina
This was actually the first time I'd tried chicken sausages and I was pleasantly surprised. They were really tasty but it's great if you've got a good butcher you can get sausages from.
Mandy Mazliah
I make almost exactly this recipe but with veggie sausages! Great minds think alike and all that... I'll have to amend it though before I blog it now!
Corina
IT's probably the type of meal lots of people love to throw together with a few variations. I'm sure it's lovely with veggie sausages too!
Charlotte Oates
I've not spotted those chicken sausages in the supermarket before, they sound delicious so I'm going to be keeping an eye open for them.
Brilliant of you both to be raising awareness of such an important cause xx
Corina
Thanks Charlotte x

Tes
My son and I cannot live without sausages, but recently we have been very conscious about picking the one that is too contaminated or unhealthy. I love this recipe. It's so colorful.
Corina
Thanks Tes. I always try to buy good sausages when we get them too as my kids love them and they do make an easy meal!
