My tasty chipolata traybake recipe
The best things can happen when you’re cooking with what’s left in your fridge. That’s also how I discovered this dinner traybake recipe with chipolata sausages. Bare in mind, the ingredients stated are per person, so you can calculate how much you’ll need for larger groups!
Here are the ingredients you’ll need:
- 3 chipolata sausages, if you’re vegetarian, spicy vegetarian sausages work just as well!
- Fresh spinach
- 2 handfuls of cherry tomatoes
- 100 grams of baby potatoes
- A red onion
- Grated cheese
- Dried oregano and basil
- Garlic powder
- pepper, salt and olive oil
Let’s get this traybake in the oven!
This dinner recipe really couldn’t be easier. Pre-heat the oven at 200 degrees. Then you start by cutting up the sausages, the tomatoes and the onion.Make sure the pieces aren’t too small, since they can dry out or burn that way.
There are two ways you can prepare your tray. I used a glass oven dish, which I greased beforehand with some olive oil. You can also use a real tray with a sheet of baking paper on top. When the oven is hot enough, you put the sausages, spinach leaves, cherry tomatoes, potatoes and onion on the tray. Then, sprinkle the oil all over it, this will make everything more crispy. However, you shouldn’t use too much, since it can make it too greasy. Then, you sprinkle the oregano, basil, garlic powder, salt and pepper over the mix and give everything a good stir to make sure it’s all divided equally. I usually don’t add salt to dishes, but it will dry out the ingredients better Lastly, you add the grated cheese all over the tray and put the tray in the oven for 30 minutes.
I would recommend to regularly check the tray. All ovens are different, so you should make sure that nothing is heating up too quickly. However, you should also make sure the potatoes are good through and through. Since they’re member of the ‘Nightshade family’, they can make you quite ill when you’re eating them raw.
Adaptations of the recipe
As mentioned before, it’s quite easily turned into a vegetarian recipe by changing the chipolata sausages into vegetarian ones. You could also use beans and some chili powder in the mix if you don’t have the vegetarian sausage option available to you. If you want to make it vegan, I would recommend using a little bit more salt and maybe add some vegan mayonnaise to make the recipe a little more creamy.
I hope you’ll like this recipe as much as I do! I’m so curious to know if you did and maybe if you’ve switched up some ingredients, so let me know in the comments below!

Looks yummy and sounds very easy. Would love to try it. Thanks for sharing this.

I really is, so nice and warming!
Wow, awesome! You reminded me of my trip to France where I tasted chipolata. I really want to cook this tonight …
Haha well, what’s holding you back? Go for it! I hope you like it 😁
I really love the idea of this and would just replace the sausage with thick cut portobello mushrooms instead of veggie sausages. I might try adding this as a dish for Thanksgiving!
Oeh that sounds really great at well, maybe with a spicy sauce like sriracha on them or sprinkled with chili powder for the spice? I hope it’ll fit into your menu!
Looking delicious. I’m going to try it this week. Thanks for sharing.

I hope you like it! Let me know if you have any recommendations afterwards to make it even better 😁
I feel hungry just looking at these images! I’ve never had chipotle before, and I would love to try it. It’s strange that I’ve never seen any restaurants over here serving chipotle, ever. Or perhaps I just haven’t been paying attention. Hmmm… In any case, thanks for sharing your recipe! 🙂
No chipolata sausages are pretty specific, but I really love them. They’re soft, yet spicy, so they’re great for recipes like this, whereas other sausages can get a bit to hard to bite into.
This looks great! I even have some spicy veggie sausages in the freezer just waiting to be used. Thanks for sharing this recipe. I’m looking forward to trying it.
That sounds absolutely perfect with this dish 😍 I hope you’ll enjoy it!
This sounds amazing. I need to try it. It making me hungry.

It really is in my opinion! And super easy on busy weekdays.
YUM! This is actually one of my favourite meal prep items! I make this a few times a week and sometimes put some on top of my salad I do something similar but instead of tomatoes do bell peppers!
That sounds delicious as well. Nice and sweet. Thanks for the tip!
Simple meals like this are my favorite for busy weeknights or when prepping for the week! I love how you can swap out different meats, proteins, and veggies!
Yeah this is one of the most versatile recipes ever in terms of ingredients! Just tailor it to your likes and whatever is left over. Saves a lot of money as well!

Love this type of mashup dinners that are easy, hearty and moreish. Bonus points if you can dip garlic bread in it 🙂 Have a lovely weekend Lisa xx
