Pork Traybake
I’m a big fan of recipes that can be cooked in one-pan for many reasons – the number one being less clearing up!
Being able to toss a bunch of ingredients into/onto a roasting tin; baking tray; sheet pan; skillet; cooking pot; casserole dish; dutch oven; instant pot; slow cooker (delete as appropriate!) and leaving it to do its thing is the easiest way of cooking!
Especially if you are pressed for time or under stress and need to get dinner on the go and on the table with minimum effort.
This pork traybake is so simple to make – you literally chop the veggies and toss them into the baking tray with some cubed pork, then add some seasoning and lemon juice.
Throw the pan in the oven and forget about it while you go and do something else!
It’s the kind of recipe that can easily be customised with different vegetables and you could use chicken instead of pork if you prefer.
Remember if you are Food Optimising to remove the skin from the chicken so that it is FREE!
This recipe for vegetable and lemon pork traybake serves 4 and is FREE when Food Optimising.

Recipe Tips
- I used ready-cubed pork in this recipe, but you could use pork chops or pork loin and cut into cubes. Make sure to remove any visible fat if you are on Slimming World!
- This is the kind of traybake recipe that you can adapt quite easily using a variety of different vegetables, and herbs and spices.
- Most sturdy vegetables roast well including broccoli, red onion, Brussels sprouts, potatoes, carrots, fennel, eggplant/aubergine, kale, peppers, squash, and many others.
- This dish is cooked with a method of roasting and steaming which helps to keep the pork nice and moist and also helps to cook the vegetables too.
- With all the veggies you need in one dish, there is no need for sides – but if you want more vegetables, a green salad would pair great with this pork traybake.
