Notes

Make this meat free by swapping the chicken breasts for a drained 400g can chickpeas, then place 180g sliced haloumi (contains dairy) over the baked vegetables before sprinkling with pine nuts and baking for final the 15 minutes.Make this meat free by swapping the chicken breasts for a drained 400g can chickpeas, then place 180g sliced haloumi (contains dairy) over the baked vegetables before sprinkling with pine nuts and baking for final the 15 minutes.
