Halloumi Roasted Vegetables
As soon as summer ends, I usually swap out the salads for some sort of warming tray of roasted vegetables. Here I’ve roasted onion with pepper, sweet potato, courgette and black beans, then topped it with cubes of halloumi that turn crisp and golden. There’s also a creamy chilli sauce to go with it, but if you don’t fancy using the blender then sriracha mayonnaise/yoghurt will be equally delicious!

Why you’ll love this dish
- Versatile - one of my favourite things about tray bake is how versatile they are. Swap out the veg for whatever you have in the fridge - cauliflower or aubergine would be particularly delicious. And use any bean/pulse that you have, or you can leave them out if you don't fancy it.
- Easy - tray bakes are great because they’re guaranteed to be easy! All you need to do is chop up some vegetables and protein then let the oven do the work.
What ingredients do you need for this dish (includes possible substitutions)?
Halloumi: halloumi is perfect for roasting because it turns crisp and golden whilst retaining its shape.
Red onion: I love red onion in this dish because it gives a bright pop of colour! But of course you could you brown onion instead.
Pepper: red pepper is my favourite to use here, but use whatever you want.
Sweet potato: can be swapped for normal potato too!
Courgette: I like the green addition courgette brings!
Black beans: the beans go slightly crispy after roasting in the oven so it brings a nice textural difference to the dish. If you don't have black beans then you can swap them for whatever bean/pulse you have.
Garlic powder and onion powder: adds a bit of flavour to the vegetables!
Spring onion: the spring onion brings a bit of freshness to the dish, but can be swapped for other herbs if needed. Coriander would be delicious!
Sesame seeds: optional but recommended!
What to serve this with?
This is a complete meal so you don’t need to serve it with anything!
