Sheet Pan Meals
Rosemary roasted salmon, asparagus and potatoes
The recipes below were curated by our dietitians to share simple, balanced meal ideas that can be prepared on a single sheet pan for easier cooking and cleanup. Using parchment paper or foil can make cleanup even faster.
You don’t need to try every recipe listed here. If you find a few that work well for you or your family, rotating them into your meal plan can help add variety without too much extra effort.
Most of these includes a balance of protein, non-starchy vegetables, and carbohydrates — a combination that supports both satiety and flexibility with swapping out preferred ingredients. We’ve included suggestions on what to add if one of these is missing. Use the portion guidance discussed with your dietitian to determine what works best for you.
