Sausage and Roasted veg bake

Take a pack of sausages, and cut a selection of veg into wedges - a butternut squash, a peeled red onion, parsnips, potatoes and red pepper all work well. If you have some nice fat garlic cloves, they work well too. Mix them all together in a large roasting tin, chuck on a few springs of rosemary and a little salt, coat with a little slick of olive oil and roast for 45 - 60 minutes, turning once or twice during cooking to redistribute the toasty bits.

Easy, quick and tasty, uses only one dish, my favourite kind of recipe. YUM :D

then add soft squash to pan then add stock to just about cover it bring to the boil and blit. add some cream to finish if you like just remember to season again

cut the squash in half length ways and remove the seeds, roast in the oven skin side up for about 40mins. leave to cool for a while and then cut into slices and peel, easier to do when still slightly warm but not too hot.
Make lasagne in normal way but add an extra layer of the squash on top of the mince and under the lasagne sheets.

Scoff as quickly as possible!!

mmm haven't made this for ages - I feel a lasagne night coming on!!

tried, tested and used many times again! so tasty! i wasnt sure about the honey tried it with and without, a million times better with!

1kg butternut squash
1tbsp veg oil
1 chopped onion
600ml hot veg stock
2tbsp clear honey

preheat oven to 200 degrees/gas mark 6, cut butternut squash in half lengthways, scoop out seeds and pith. cut into large chunks and peel. place on baking tray and season with ground salt and pepper then drizzle over the oil, roast for 20mins then remove. and the onion and stir then cook for a further 15 mins. empty the whole lot into a food processor with half the stock (i actually found it was better in a smoothie maker lol) and blend until smooth. place puree in a saucepan with the rest of the stock and the honey, simmer for 3 to 4 mins then serve :)
