Chipolatas and squash traybake

Tray baked sausages with various veggies are family favourites all over the world. In my family chipolatas are particularly popular, so this dish is a regular mid-week meal for us. I make it with other veggies too - potatoes, sweet potatoes, aubergine, courgette, parsnip, beetroot, swede, carrot work  very well too. But this particular version, chipolatas and squash traybake, is really nice on autumnal evenings. You can drizzle some maple syrup on the top , if you like.
