Sheet Pan Recipes are Simple & Easy
Sheet pan meals are like one-pot meals. They are easy to make and easy to clean. Less mess because there is only one pan. Also, if a recipe calls for a certain ingredient it’s easy to substitute.
Sheet pan recipes are perfect for when you are on a round of Whole 30 because life can get busy. You don’t always have time to spend hours cooking in the kitchen.
What You Need for Sheet Pan Meals
Make sure to pick the right sheet pan. You want one that is sturdy and big enough. Also, make sure that it has a rimmed edge.
You want to contain any sauces from dripping off. I use these Nordic Ware aluminum sheet pans. I love these because they are sturdy and will never warp.
Sheet pan meals mean there is only one pan to clean after dinner. And to make clean up easier you can use parchment paper or these silicone mats.
Another good kitchen tool to have on hand is a meat thermometer. This tool is so helpful because I’m never sure when meat is done. And I don’t want to overcook it and make it dry. So having a thermometer helps take out the guesswork.

Tips for Sheet Pan Meals
Make sure that your proteins and veggies have the same cooking time. You want all the ingredients on your sheet pan to finish at the same time.
But, you can also add items in stages. Like when I make sausage with peppers and potatoes. The potatoes are going to take the longest.
So I will start roasting the potatoes. Then when they are getting closer to done I’ll add the peppers. Then the sausage because these items won’t take as long to cook.
To save time and make sheet pan meals quicker pre-cut your veggies. Store them in airtight bags or containers until ready to use.
It is much easier to make one huge mess in the kitchen instead of several huge messes throughout the week. So cut all the vegetables you have from the market when you’re meal prepping for the week.
Easy Whole 30 Meals
With sheet pan meals you can throw all the ingredients on the pan put it in the oven and walk away. If you don’t consider yourself a good cook sheet pan meals are perfect because they are hard to mess up.
Whole 30 can be intimidating. First, you have to learn what you can and can’t eat. Once you figure that out you have to decide what you are going to make for your meals.
Your meals don’t have to be over complicated. These Whole 30 sheet pan recipes are easy and simple meals to help you stay on your round of Whole 30.
