I love a one tray meal, there’s something so satisfyingly efficient about just being able to throw everything onto a pan, put it in the oven and then have dinner ready and waiting for you not long afterwards.
This One Tray Mediterranean Lamb & Halloumi is made even more satisfying by the fact that it includes six different types of vegetables – which not only makes it super healthy and nutritious with lots of different vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, but it also means that it looks beautiful thanks to all the different colours. And just when you thought it couldn’t get much better, there’s halloumi!
The combination of lamb, vegetables and halloumi provides a perfectly balanced meal with plenty of protein, fibre, low GI carbs, and some calcium too (something which many of us don’t get enough of!). Oh, and it tastes amazing!

4 lamb chops or cutlets
1 tsp mixed herbs
