Notes

The tomatoes roast down into an almost salsa-like sauce underneath the vegetables and chorizo.
Leftovers are excellent in quesadillas, rice bowls or baked potatoes the next day.
If you like extra heat, add chilli flakes or extra jalapeños.
Everything cooks on one tray, making this ideal for busy weeknights with minimal washing up.
