Roasted veg & halloumi tray bake!!! Barely any washing up!!! Nothing better in my opinion. Includes all your food groups too for a well balanced meal 🫶🏻 Serves 4
 Ingredients: 
 1 yellow pepper, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
1 small punnet cherry tomatoes
1 small courgette, chopped
2 red onions, chopped
1 tin chickpeas, drained and rinsed
300g orzo
1 tin chopped tomatoes
1 vegetable stock cube
1 block halloumi, sliced
1 handful fresh basil
1/2 tsp mixed herbs
1–2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Salt, to taste

Method: 
 1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. 2. Chop and add the peppers, cherry tomatoes, courgette, red onions and chickpeas to a large baking tray. Drizzle with the olive oil, add the mixed herbs and a little salt, then give everything a really good mix so the vegetables are coated. 3. Roast for around 20 minutes, until the vegetables are starting to soften and caramelise. 4. Meanwhile, slice the halloumi and cook it in a dry frying pan over a medium-high heat until golden and crispy on both sides. Set aside. 5. Remove the tray from the oven and add the orzo, chopped tomatoes, vegetable stock cube and roughly half a tin of boiling water. Add the fresh basil and mix everything really well. 6. Return to the oven for around 10–15 minutes, giving it a stir halfway through if needed, until the orzo is cooked and has absorbed most of the liquid. Add a little more water if the orzo needs it. 7. Top with the crispy halloumi and a little extra fresh basil before serving. #halloumi #traybakes #onepotmeals #easymeals #nutritiousmeals
