Sheet pan meals are the best because they’re often healthy, nutritious, and super easy to make. Check out multiple great sheet pan recipes that will last for a couple of days.
Meal prepping, particularly over the weekend, is so good for you.
By meal prepping over the weekend, avoid the stress of what and how to make a delicious meal after a long day at work.
You also escape the temptation of eating too much takeout for those days when you’re just too tired to make dinner.
But, the one thing that is a turn-off about meal prep is all the pots and pans that you have to scrub, soak, and wash after you’re done meal prepping. Meal prepping is hard enough, and the last thing you want to do after meal prepping is clean up.
That’s where sheet pan recipes come in handy. These recipes are not only great for meal prepping, but they’re also great for skipping the dishes.
So, read on and see how you can make some delicious meals and skip the clean-up.

1. Sheet Pan Fajitas

If you’re in the mood for fajitas, you’ve got to give this dish a try.
The veggies are roasted to perfection, and the chicken is tender and juicy.
For this dish, we’re using chicken thighs because they’re super flavourful and also harder to overcook than chicken breasts.
To give the veggies and chicken thighs extra flavor, we’re tossing them in a mix of seasonings including black pepper, smoked paprika, and oregano. And to add some tang, we’re adding some True Lime, which is basically crystallized lime.
Once your veggies and chicken thighs are done, place them in traditional organic tortillas like these. That’s if you don’t like making your own tortillas.
These chicken fajitas are high in protein!

Would you like a brain-boosting meal? If so, you’ve got to give this meal a try.
For dinner, we’re serving up maple glazed salmon with sweet potatoes and broccoli. Not only is the salmon tender, sweet, and savory, it’s also nutritious.
Salmon is one of the best sources of omega-3s. Omega-3s are not only good for your heart, but they’re also good for your brain as well.
To make the glaze for the salmon, simply whip together some salt, pepper, mustard, and this organic maple syrup.

3. Mini Meat Loaf Sheet-Pan Meal

Credit: tasteofhome.com
Who doesn’t love meatloaf? But as much as everyone loves it, it really does need some veggies and potatoes to go with it.
As a result, you might end up with one pan for the meatloaf, one pan for roast potatoes, and a pot for steamed veggies. And, this makes meal prep even messier.
With this dish, we only use one sheet pan for the meatloaf, asparagus, and potatoes. How is this possible?
The trick is to make the meatloaf into mini meatloaves so they cook faster. You also want your potatoes diced so they cook faster as well.
If you’re a veggie lover like I am, you can add more asparagus to the pan. It might make sense to get an extra-large sheet like this.

What’s even better than shrimp? Shrimp and sausage!

To make it, toss shrimp and your favorite sausage in a bowl, along with some zucchini, yellow squash, bell pepper, asparagus, salt, pepper, and olive oil. And don’t forget to add some Cajun seasoning- that’s where the Cajun flare comes from!
Then spread your veggies, shrimp, and sausage on your sheet pan and dinner will be ready in 15 – 20 minutes.

Do you love pork chops? Then, you’ll be sure to love this pork chop recipe!
This, in my humble opinion, is a true one-pan dish as we’re making pork chops, roasted pork chops, and Brussels sprouts on one pan. This makes for a truly delicious and nutritious dish.
Now, let’s talk about the pork chops. These pork chops are crispy, savory, and cheesy and are a nice spin on your traditional pork chops.
To make them, simply dredge your pork chops in an egg-milk mixture. Then, dredge them in a panko mixture made of garlic powder, cheddar cheese, Italian seasoning, and panko breadcrumbs like these.
If you want to reduce the number of carbs in the meal, use almond flour or pork rinds instead of breadcrumbs. I usually recommend stacking up on this almond flour and pork rinds.
Finally, place them on your sheet pan and bake for 15 minutes, before flipping them over, and baking for another 15 minutes.

6. Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower and Chicken

Now, if you’re not a fan of chicken breasts or veggies for that matter, this dish may convert you.
This parmesan roasted cauliflower and chicken breast dish take only 10 minutes of prep time, then you let your oven do the rest of the work.
The chicken breasts turn out tender on the inside, yet crispy on the outside. This is because we’re using skin-on chicken breasts.
Leaving the skin on the chicken breasts not only adds flavor and keeps the breast moist on the inside, but it also makes cooking the chicken breasts easier.
And to make the roasted cauliflower extra flavourful, we’re tossing them in parmesan cheese, butter, lemon zest, salt, pepper, and avocado oil.
Plus, if you’re a big fan of roasted potatoes, feel free to whip them up using the same coatings that we’re using for the cauliflower.

Potatoes and meat are like peanut butter and jam. But after a while, you get tired of all those potatoes.
So to change things up, you can use gnocchi instead. Now, you’re probably thinking that your gnocchi will end up crispy in the oven.
But it actually doesn’t. Your gnocchi actually puffs up and becomes pillowy – just the way it should.
And then, you add Italian sausages, cherry tomatoes, and broccoli. It’s the perfect taste of Italy.
This dish doesn’t take much prep time either. The one thing you’ll want to do is make sure you cut your Italian Sausage into one-inch pieces.
That’s so your Sausage and veggies are ready at the same time.

Great recipes. But as a beginner meal prepper (like starting soon) no real instruction on how store and reheat. That would be so helpful for those trying to get a handle on this craze
