What if you could throw together some delicious ingredients on one baking sheet and a few minutes later be able to say. “dinner’s ready!”

Well, you can.

One pan dinners – or sheet pan dinners, as some call them, are our new midweek favourite, the smart solution to our busy lives that allows us to serve up nutritious and yummy meals without having to slave in the kitchen for hours.

It’s a total win/win.

So to get your started, here are five seriously delicious one pan dinners we have found over on some of our favourite food blogs lately:

1. Honey Lime Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner

You can even prep this ahead for those really busy weeknights.

Salmon is such a good choice as most kids will eat this mild-flavoured fish. Even better? This dinner is impressive enough to serve up to guests too!

This Italian comfort food classic is slightly more tedious to make using an original recipe, but since making it this way, I haven’t looked back.
