Sticky Red Onion & Sausage Bake with Gravy (vegan)

Sticky Red Onion & Sausage Bake with Gravy

I've made this bake a few times. Graham and Cooper both love vegan sausages and this is a way of serving them that's more interesting and more of a meal than serving them plain.

I particularly like this dish because it takes hardly any preparation. The most I have to do is peel potatoes to serve with it.

With this dish I can put a substantial and healthy meal on the table on a weeknight and feel like a domestic goddess. I have to admit weeknights don't usually look like this.

You'll generally see me making pasta, soup, dal or toasties with salad.

Nothing complicated or time consuming. Just an easy meal that doesn't take too long.

How to Make Sticky Red Onion Sausage Bake

To make this bake the red onions and sausages are roasted in the oven.

When they are crisp and brown I add a rich gravy and pop it back in the oven while I cook potatoes for mash.

I serve the bake with mashed potato and peas for a comfort-on-a-plate dinner.

It's really, really tasty and would please the most hesitant veggie.

I use Linda McCartney Sausages which are suitable for vegans and a mixture of a gravy pot and vegetable stock cubes for the gravy.

You could use your favourite sausages and make your own gravy if you like, these are my weeknight shortcuts.

I do hope you give this one a try. I'm sure you'll love it, my boys do and so do I.
