Sometimes all you need is a simple, filling and tasteful dish without too much hassle. In such cases, I usually turn to oven dishes, especially the ones where combine most of ingredients all at once and bake! They are also perfect for sharing, especially if you’re cooking for a group, and I always find them comforting, like this one. Healthy and nutritious, packing with lovely flavours and easy to make.
