Why this works

A substantial, savoury tray bake with a good vegetable contribution, but it is relatively energy-dense and fairly high in salt and saturated fat due to the sausages.

Vitamin A rich vegetables. Sweet potatoes and carrots provide beta-carotene, supporting eye health and immune function.

Vitamin C and antioxidants. Red peppers, onions and lemon contribute vitamin C and antioxidant compounds, which help support normal immune function.

Salt and saturated fat concern. The sausages and added salt are the main contributors to sodium, while sausages also raise saturated fat, so this is not a low-salt dish.

Method

Heat the oven to 200°C (Fan 180°C, 392°F, Gas Mark 6).
Cut the sweet potatoes, potatoes, carrots, red onions and green peppers into even chunks.
Toss the vegetables with garlic, salt, black pepper and a little oil if available, then spread on a roasting tray.
Add the cooked sausages and roast for 30–35 minutes, turning once, until the vegetables are tender and caramelised.
Finish with a squeeze of lemon and serve hot.
