Meat mains
Sausage and root veg bake
This is simple winter cooking at it's best. Just toss all the ingredients in one baking tray and leave them in the oven while you get on with other things. Eat with a good big dollop of your favourite mustard, or if you've got a bit more time, with rich onion gravy. A pile of braised cabbage or winter greens would go down well too.
