What is a Sheet Pan Dinner?
A sheet pan dinner is made by putting your ingredients on a single sheet pan. It’s a convenient method of cooking multiple ingredients at once and allows for a more hands-off approach to meal prep. Sheet pan dinners are like one pot meals, except that they are baked in the oven on a baking tray or sheet.
What Can I Cook on a Baking Sheet?
Almost anything can be cooked on a baking sheet. Meat and seafood like chicken, beef, shrimp and salmon are all excellent candidates for a sheet pan dinner. Vegetables like potatoes, brussels sprouts, carrots and broccoli can also be baked or roasted in the oven.
Can I Use Parchment Paper for Sheet Pan Dinners?
