A leaner take on the party favourite — chicken or turkey sausages wrapped in lean turkey bacon and oven-baked (not fried), served with veg instead of on their own.

- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- Black pepper
- To serve: 2 cups mixed vegetable sticks or a green salad

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a tray.

Wrap each sausage in a slice of turkey bacon and secure with a toothpick.
- 3
Brush lightly with olive oil and dust with smoked paprika and pepper.
- 4
Bake 20–25 minutes, turning once, until cooked through and golden.
- 5
Rest a couple of minutes, then serve with the vegetables or salad.
