Easy Sheet Pan Recipes for a Healthy Autumn

By Nadia Bujold, P.Dt., Dietician and Nutritionist in the Santé Jeunesse Program

Parents know that between work, homework, and children’s activities, there is not much time left for meal prep. Yet a balanced diet is key to the physical and mental health of our families, especially during cold and flu season.

Make life easier with sheet pan meals, a practical, quick, and delicious dinner solution.

5 reasons a sheet pan dinner is a winner

  1. Simple and quick: Just put your ingredients on a sheet pan, season, and let the oven do the rest. Less preparation means more time for yourself and your family.
  2. Easy clean-up: With just one pan to wash, you can now say goodbye to those mountains of dishes!
  3. Balanced meals: Combine proteins, veggies, and carbs on a single sheet for a well-balanced meal.
  4. Adaptable: Adjust recipes to the ingredients you have on hand and your family’s tastes.
  5. Make ahead: Prepare and marinade ingredients ahead of time and then just pop them in the oven when it’s time to eat.
