What To Do

Preheat your oven to 180C
Cut the onions and capsicum into slices and throw them in a tray along with the cherry tomatoes , drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle salt and pepper
Cover the tray with foil, and pop in the oven for 20 minutes at 180C.
Take the foil off and cook for another 20 minutes, until the veggies start to caramelise (turn golden brown at the edges)
Take the tray out, add in the cooked grain and herbs into the same tray so that they can soak all the delicious flavour from the veggies and their juices.
Season to taste, and throw over the fresh bramhi leaves on top. Done! Your veggie tray bake is ready.
