Tray-baked sausages with tomatoes, potatoes and rosemary

If you’re looking for a no-fuss, family-friendly dinner that basically cooks itself—this tray bake is your new best friend. 🍽️

It’s the kind of meal you can throw together in minutes, using simple ingredients you probably already have at home. Just pop everything onto one tray—sausages, cherry tomatoes, potatoes, rosemary—and let the oven do the hard work. Minimal prep, hardly any washing up, and maximum flavour. Yes please.

It’s cosy, comforting, and perfect for those nights when you want dinner sorted without hovering over a stove. Bonus: it makes your kitchen smell absolutely amazing.

You can use whatever sausages your family likes best. I love the ones our local butcher makes, but the kids favourite sausages are just the chipoatas from Woolworths. Go for whatever works for your family.
