Easy Rainbow Traybake

by Charlotte Stirling Reed

"This colourful and veggie-packed traybake takes only 5 minutes to prep and then the oven does all the work. It makes a balanced bowl of food for all the family and uses a can of lentils which is one of my favourite economical store-cupboard staples. The recipe is easily doubled if you want to do it as a batch cook (on two trays). Serve it on its own, with couscous or pasta, or in a jacket potato. For babies, you can blend the sauce or mash with a potato masher to get a texture that suits your little one’s stage of weaning". - Charlotte Stirling Reed

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6 and dice the peppers, courgette, aubergine and red onion. Add to the tray with the whole baby plum tomatoes and crush over the garlic. Sprinkle over the oregano, drizzle with olive oil and stir.

Step 2

Roast in the top of the oven for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Add the drained lentils to the tray, dot with a little chopped mozzarella and return to the oven for a few more minutes until the cheese is just melted. Tear over a handful of fresh basil and serve with a grain or potato or your choosing.
